Warning!  In 4.5.x if you delete the debug log for today, vmd will crash at
midnight (or one second after midnight).  You need to delete the log, kill
vmd, and then restart it.
 
This is 100% reproducible.  I opened a case with Veritas, logging this as a
bug...they came back and said "no, it's designed that way, it's not a bug".

 
The mind reels.

This is for advanced logging of the dev mgr daemons.  I typically use this
only for troubleshooting.  When all is done, I remove the directory as it
just adds overhead to the processes.
 
If you aren't experiencing any problems or need these logs for
troubleshooting, I would venture a guess that you would be safe removing
them and the directory as well.

Hi there, 

I find that there are a lot of logs under the directory
/usr/openv/volmgr/debug/daemon. Is there any use of this logs or can we
delete them.

Regards,
