ESX “Dead Brain” has some symptoms
I found the ESX “Dead Brain” has some symptoms and it’s very insteresting
1. CPU utilization is heavy loading in vix-async-pipe
a. Reference VMware KB: 1030894 ---- not work
b. Reference VMware KB: 1003490 ---- not work
2. Load average is up than 20 , you can using “top” to check esx hypervisor loading.
3. Some zombie process and can’t kill it
a. ps aux |awk ‘{ print $8 “ “$2 }’ |grep –w Z ---- show zombie process ID
b. kill -9 xxxxx ---- not work
Finally, I found this VMware KB: 1005566 and it works for me.

I think “Dead Brain” is cause by process dead lock (in this case vmware-hostd)
