Cause

This issue occurs by the hardware monitoring service (dcism) that populates the /etc/cim/dell/srvadmin/iSM/ini directory.

Resolution

Engage with DellEMC support for a resolution with dcism vib.

Workaround

To workaround this issue:

1.    Connect to the ESXi host using SSH.
2.    Run this command to stop the dcism service:

/etc/init.d/dcism-netmon-watchdog stop

3. To ensure that the  dcism does not start upon reboot

chkconfig dcism-netmon-watchdog off

4. Manually delete the files in the Check /etc/cim/dell/srvadmin/iSM/ini directory to free inodes.

Such as
tttttttttttttSQfKaq
ttttttttttttt8Rcadp

5.Connect the ESXi back to vCenter if host does not come back into vCenter a reboot is required.
