vRealize inquiries

If a component in the vRealize changes color status, an alert can be possibly be created.

1. If the issue is resolved, will the color coding be automatically change?

2. Can vROPs integrate with other monitoring tools: like Solarwinds and NAGIOS?

3. If an alert is created and is resolved, do I have to acknowledge it first before the color status is changed automatically? Concern is they see alerts from the vRealize dashboard that was created 2-3 months ago but is still there in the dashboard

1. Conditions are evaluated every cycle and the alerts would self-clear. The exception is event-based symptoms+alerts. 2. Data ingestion by vROps or data transmission to those 3rd party systems? What specifically do you want to integrate? 3. Event/Fault-based alerts won't self-clear, but other symptom types will self-clear. You can't automatically negate a event-triggered symptom automatically since you never 'truly' know the event is over.. you simply know it 'happened'.
