/shared/vmisolinks is not removed from vCMP hosts when booting into builds that do not support block-device-image and block-device-hotfix vcmp installations.
/shared/vmisolinks is present and takes up space. /shared can artificially fill up and cause warnings.
This occurs in 11.6.0 or later with vCMP provisioned. In pre-11.6.0 versions, vCMP does not have to be provisioned.
/shared/vmisolinks can be safely removed from older versions with the following command sequence: -- 'clsh rm -rf /shared/vmisolinks'. -- 'clsh ls -al /shared/vmisolinks'. After removing the /shared/vmisolinks directory from each cluster member or the appliance as a vCMP host, the space warnings related to /shared/vmisolinks will cease.
/shared/vmisolinks is now properly cleaned up upon system startup.
