Issue/Introduction
Symptoms:
Auto deploy log %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\vmware-autodeploy-waiter\AppDate\Local\Temp\autodeploy-service.log is growing and shows a huge size up to several GBs, without rolling over.
Even if you delete the file, restarting the Auto Deploy service creates the temporary file and increases the size indefinitely without rotation.
Resolution
This is a known issue affecting VMware vCenter Server 5.5 and 6.x.
This issue is resolved in VMware vCenter Server 6.5 Update 1, available at VMware Downloads.
