VC Alert for Multipath Failure

[NewbVMDude]

I recently got an alert from my iSCSI SAN controller that it wasn't happy.  Further investigations revealed that only had 1 path to my datastores instead of 4.  I rebooted my hosts and all came good. However I had no indication that I had multipath issues.

Is there a way to configure a VC alert for this event so that I can proactively monitor it, without having to manually check it each day?

you may want to look at the Host Storage status alarm.

Didn't see anything there that woudl be useful but you put me on the right path.  I see events "Degraded Storage Path Redundancy" and "Lost Storage Path Redundancy" for the host.

"Degraded Storage Path Redundancy" and "Lost Storage Path Redundancy" for the host.

Those will work as well
