Does anyone know how to create either a view, custom group, and/or dashboard that will list names of VMs that are on local datastores? I know how to create a view to list Datastores that are local and have VMs on them; however, I'm looking for the reverse-- identify the VM names ON local datastores. Any thoughts/ideas?
Thanks,
Yes you will need to create a supermetric and apply it to Virtual Machines. Here is the supermetric that I created for it.
min(${adaptertype=VMWARE, objecttype=Datastore, metric=System Attributes|availability, depth=5, where = "summary|isLocal equals true"})

This is perfect! View created & applied to Virtual Machine objects and the new view has been added to my weekly healthcheck dashboard. Thanks again!
Nice, reason why its not on my health check dashboard is because it requires supermetric. Also check out Host with Mismatch datastores. http://www.vmignite.com/2019/04/vrops-how-to-find-out-which-clusters-have-inconsistent-datastores-mo...
