• Message class: CSM_VMC - Messages for VM Container Monitoring

• Message text: Number of deleted old cache entries when adding new entries

What causes this issue?

When saving an object in the cache causes another object to be deleted,
this is called eviction. Objects can be evicted synchronously or
asynchronously. Synchronous eviction means that when the cache is full,
an old object is deleted in order to save the new one. Asynchronous
means that a cleanup job deletes the old objects without a new object
being stored directly.
This number is the number of cache entries directly evicted when a new
entry is written (synchronous).
