100 Health after licensing

Hello!

After adding a trial license key for vCOps Health metrics become equal to 100, Health of vcenter servers become 95.

Before licensing Health was about 75 for every item I've mentioned.

There are 150 VMs and license key is for 10000 VMs.Could it be the reason for this discrepancy or there is an another cause?

Thanks!

Welcome to the Community,

I suspect another factor causing this behavior as Licenses won't interact with data metrics (AFAIK)

Yes, I thought so, but I've checked 2 times and Health always grows after adding the licenses to vSphere.

In vCops 5.x unlicensed means that the Anomaly badge is not calculated. Without Anomalies the only way to calculate Health is to subtract Workload, eg: Workload = 35, Health = 100-35 = 65.

This a rather limited way of calculating Health as a Datastore at 80% full would have a Health badge of 20...

Always license vCops! Smiley Happy
