Hi all,
I´m using Vcenter 6.7.x and vRops 8.3.0 .
Inside Vcenter, we have a CustomAttribute ( Type VirtualMachine , Name VMInfo )
When i check one of our VMs in vROPS ( Properties > Summary > Custom Tag > VMInfo > Value ) everything is fine.
But when i wanted to build a custom group for VMs based on this Custom Tag, i cannot choose the Tag VMInfo.
Acutally, the group type is "Service Level Objective" , Membership Criteria is based in Virtual Machine
Where´s my mistake ?
Thank you in advance...
Assuming that your vSphere Tag has the word vminfo in it. Are you need to do is set it to filter to contains vminfo. See below screenshot
Hi & good Morning ,
that´s the Problem 🙂
Here´s my example-Output from PowerCLI:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Get-CustomAttribute| ft -AutoSize
Key Name TargetType
--- ---- ----------
43 AutoDeploy.MachineIdentity VMHost
201 Installation.StatusCode VMHost
202 Installation.StatusDescription VMHost

2 com.vmware.vcIntegrity.customField.scheduledTask.signature
3 com.vmware.vcIntegrity.customField.scheduledTask.target
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> $a= get-vm VM34887
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> $a.CustomFields
Key Value

VMInfo WebServer
Navigating through the VM in vrops ( Properties , Summary , Custom Tag , VMinfo ) works fine. But when i try to build the custom group, i cannot choose the Tag vminfo...
So you did this using scripts. Tagging in vCenter works better as it is easier to manage from vCenter and it will show up in vROPS. I don't do script tagging so can't help you here
