Hello,
Does anyone else have problems with heartbeat alarms? I've configured our VC to generate a heartbeat alarm however it seems that nearly every time I reboot a VM the heartbeat alarm chirps (which is to be expected momentarily) however even after the host has come back up the heartbeat alarm still shows red.
If I go onto the VM and restart the vmware tools service it then will flip the alarm back to green. This happens 99.9% of the time when I have to reboot a host and is always resolved by bouncing that service... What's the point of the heartbeat if it doesn't sync back up when the VM comes back on?
VC 2.5 / ESX3.0.2 Build 61618
