Vcenter Alert

[Bharatk]

Hi ,

We have one cluster and suddenly os of the vm started migrating form one host to another host but we have seen everything was good but only the thing was that only one ESXi server vm was migrating to anothe esxi box.

We tried to troubleshoot the issue and found one vm was utilizing high resource pool so we stopped the server and now started now it functions good but there is one error on the Clytser whil seen in the summary details it shows like

configuration issue  alarm "virtual machine snapshot size on vcenter server ran script "C:\Programdata\vmware virtual Center\scripts\redirect.bat" "C:\ProgramData\VMware\Vmware Virtual Center\Scripts\CallHome.ps1"

Please help any one to know the root cause..

Migration of VM from one host to other was due to high memory/cpu load on one ESXi host. In order to balance the load on the ESXi host, DRS (fully automated mode/partially automated mode ) starts VM migration to other host in the cluster which is comparatively less loaded (either from cpu or memory perspective). 

On Error: I suspect that, you have configured Alarm for "VM which is running from snapshot" (Refer: VMware KB: Configuring VMware vCenter Server to send alarms when virtual machines are running from s...) when you stopped the server, it seems, alarm settings got disturbed. Can you please check the alarm setting again & see if it resolves the issue. ?

Hi

Welcome to communities.

You need to monitor the resources so that can get root cause .

and how many times you have faced this problem ? If it is first time then good to start monitoring.
