Date, time, and environmental variables may vary depending on your environment.
The purpose of this article is to clarify the significance of the message "Inappropriate ioctl for device".
These APD messages are logged in the vmkernel.log file when a name space is first mounted in vSAN.
This is an expected behavior due to the underlying filesystem design in vSAN.This message has no production impact and can be safely ignored.
