vCOPs Alerting not working ?

Hi,

I have added my VCOPS server and I can from vCOPS Click on "actions-> search in vlog insight"..that is working well so I think the adaptor is configured correctly.

Now the issues is when I setup an alert in vCenter Log and set source as a VM critial...I dont see the VM getting a fault or change status.

1. Does the Aelrting work to vCOPS in the beta ?

2. If yes guide to setup ?

I have ensured my Time settings and zones are all the same in vCOPS and vCenter Log Insight.

Hey Hugo - good questions!

1.  Yes

2. Are you running vCenter Operations Manager 5.7.1? If so then you can view the information from the custom UI or by going to the environment events heat map for an object and selecting the new show notification button.

I will ensure the documentation gets updated.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I am using 5.7.1, it was a new deployment.

In the Custom UI the HTTP Adaptor is showing "blue" which mean it does not show any health.. I am expecting it to show Green. Can you confirm it must be "green" ?

From within vC Ops I can launch in context...works well !

Thanks for the help !

Hey Hugo - Log Insight alarms do not show as health today. If you are in the custom UI, then go to the Alerts section and the Log Insight alarms will show up there. I hope this helps!
