Yellow alarm near the host name

[MariusRoma]

While browsing hosts in vCenter I see a yellow alarm triangle near the name of some hosts.

If I open the alarm tab I don't see any alarm.

How can I see what is the reason of the alarm and solve it?

have you tried restarting the managment agents on the host in question?

Also, is there any description of the alert in the Summary Tab?

See if moving up an object level (cluster, DC, vCenter) and viewing the alarm tab offers anything.

Also make sure that you have the "Triggered Alarms" view set and not the "Definitions" ... it may also be further up the tree.

Forgot to mention ... also check the Summary Tab for any yellow warnings - for example if you have SSH service running.

like Troy Clavell said check the summary tab
