Unable to find collection status in vrops document

Hi ,

I have seen "collection failed" and "error" while configuring adapter and its instance ,but those statuses are not defined in vmware doc .

Is this valid status or documented somewhere else .

There are lots of reasons why there would be a error state on the adapter the ones in your documentation are for the states that do not tell you what the problem is when you hover over the dot

Can you provide more details of the installed solution? And which version of vROps are you running?

But what management pack did you installed which gives you the error? Federation Management Pack?

Its not related to management pack , my question is why "Error " status not defined in vrops documents.

I hope you understood.

So the doc you were looking at was for the view adapter for vrops 6.0. The vrops documentation will not tell you what the error is because that is specific to the adapter you configure so it would be impossible for them to list all the errors that a 3rd party would write in to there code. If you look at the below link you will see

This is the same for any collection state in the documentation. the full doc is https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Operations-Manager/8.0/vrealize-operations-manager-80-help.pdf
