vsphere HA failover in progress

[tdubb123]

I have a warning on my cluster

vsphere Ha failoveri n progress. alarm has been on for a few days. any idea why it does not clear?

[Troy_Clavell]

you could clear the alarm by disabling HA on the cluster then enabling it again.

hi

I tried that but it did not work. I am on esxi 4.1 260247. is this a bug?

[Troy_Clavell]

there are no "triggered" alarms on the cluster that you can acknowledge then reset to green?

[tdubb123]

i dont have any triggered alarms. that happens very often on this cluster on this version o esxi4.

also vms are reporting

vsphere HA virtual machine failover failed.

I can manually clear the alarm but comes back after a while

[Troy_Clavell · Accepted solution]

are you running vCenter5 by any chance? If so, check your alarms.  There are specific alarms to HA.  You may try to disable/enable the alarm to clear the alert.  If you are running vCenter4, then maybe restarting the vCenter Server Service will clear the stuck alarm?

[tdubb123]

yes I am on vcenter 5. enbling and disabling those alarms worked. Thanks
