I'm seeing the identical behaviour in my vROPS deployment. It doesn't hurt anything, but it is annoying.

What is your use case for using HA?

Re: Unable to clear vROPs alerts
You're running 2 nodes, with HA enabled? So one is master, one is replica?
HP StoreFront Analytics unexplained differences between vCOPS and vROPS
We have four 3PAR's and we use HP StoreFront Analytics for VMware vRealize Operations Manager.
We have two versions running:
- vCOPS 5.8.4 (build 2199700) and HP StoreFront Analytics 2.1.480
- vROPS 6.02765404 and HP StoreFront Analytics 3.0.574
I do see some unexplained differences between for instance 3PAR Health in vCOPS and vROPS.
See attachments.

View available space on a specific drive.
How can I view available space on a specific drive with vRealize Operation. For example, View amount of free space on only C-Drive. I have looked into the Guest File System Metric but that is not broken down by drive.

vROps DR architecture design
I'm designing vRops for an environment that has a production environment and a DR environment. The customer has a general rule to provide DR between Prod -> DR and I'm considering the best way to do this from a vROps perspective.
Key Points:
1. Prod and DR is similar hardware (Vblocks)
2. SRM is deployed and available
Options:
Opt 1. Use SRM to failover the nodes and bring up the same vROps instance on DC2 (Is it possible or supported to rename the nodes and/or re-ip if we needed to using SRM? I know some VMware appliances don't like this. )
Considerations: Does it make sense to try and seamlessly failover vRops to the DR datacenter, because even though the hardware, software components will be almost identical it is still physically separate kit. So for instance, an historical hardware alert from DC1 wont be applicable to DC2. There are a number of adapters including one for UCS, vCM, vCD, Hyperic, vCNS
Opt 2. Deploy two separate and independent instances of vROps, one monitoring DC1 an one monitoring DC2 - don't fail anything over if DC1 goes down.
Considerations: We'll have no historical alerts or performance baselines, but are they valid as its different hardware? Admittedly, the software services will be failed over and they will be the same but does it makes sense to monitor them as if they were still running on DC1
Opt 3??
I'm interested in the community thoughts as to ways to deploy vROps across this Active / Passive DC configuration
Thanks
Event for showing adding cpu/mem
What is the event that would show this in VROPS? Does it stated what was changed?
vRealize Operations Management Pack for F5 BIG-IP
vROps Community Members:
Blue Medora is currently developing a new VMware vRealize Operations Management Pack for F5 BIG-IP. Our target is to release the vROps MP for F5 BIG-IP in the September timeframe.
If vROps integration with F5 BIG-IP is something that is relevant to you, our product management team is very interested in talking to you about what aspects of F5 BIG-IP you like to see surfaced in vROps, which specific BIG-IP variants (Global Traffic Manager, Local Traffic Manager, Application Acceleration Manager, etc) your organization most commonly leverages, as well as any specific troubleshooting / diagnostic use cases you have around F5 BIG-IP.
Please drop us a line at beta@bluemedora.com if you'd like to participate in a pre-release program for the vROps MP for F5 BIG-IP.

Hi,
Here is a screenshot of vROPS 6.1.

Is there any update on when this patch will be made available ?
How to create alert when Collector Status is set to "Not Collecting"
I am trying to figure out how to create an Alert when an Adapter Instance Name Collection State is set to "Not Collecting"
I have studied on the web but could not successfully do this.
Is there a way to set up such an Alert
Re: How to create alert when Collector Status is set to "Not Collecting"
Tried the following (see attached) but no joy . Possibly something in "Message Event Symptom Definitions"
List of Affinity rules?
I want to find the list of affinity rules linking Virtual Machines to ESX hosts on vROPs. There must be a way on vRealize to locate those, but I can't find them.
Is there a way to locate the list of affinity rules/affinity settings?
Thank you in advance.
Re: Adapter VC : Cannot retrieve Health Information from vCenter's Health Service located at URL: https://SERVERNAME:8443/vws
This might have helped in your case but it didn't help in ours.
We have used setups with Windows vCenter Server as well as the vCenter Server Appliance.
In both cases within the the vROps alarm panel the shown error message is being reported.
Notification event - Adapter cxx-xxx-999: Cannot retrieve Health Information from vCenter's Health Service located at URL: https://cxx-xxx-999.secret-treasure.com:8443/vws (censored)
Stopping and starting the node did not resolve this problem, neither did removing and re-registering the node.
When using the VCSA we changed the setting to regenerate (Certificate regeneration enabled = true) certificates but this message kept on appearing.
When I try to open up the URL with wvs shown in the error message I receive the following error:
HTTP Status 404 - /vws/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
type Status report
message /vws/
description The requested resource is not available.

VMware vFabric tc Runtime 2.9.5.SR1/7.0.50.C.RELEASE
Not sure if, when all works well, I should see a different page there, but sadly this is all I see at this point.
Version information (taken from the vRealize Operations Manager Administration window): 6.0.2.2777145
Has anyone experienced the same issue? And come on, be honest. I have done 4 installations by now and they all show the same errors, all in different environments. What the bug?!
Thanks & best regards
Using Hyperic or vR Ops to monitor mount points
Re: vRops 6.0.2 - can't create new reports or edit them after upgrade from 6.0.1
I had a similar issue but then I realized that I was using IE 11. Chrome works fine.
vROPS 6.0 Custom Report Schedule
By default there is option to generate reports at an hour interval , Have someone explored the options to increase the frequency of creating such reports i.e. 15 min or 30 min.
I want to create a schedule for generating reports after every 30 min but it seems that it is possible only at one hours interval
Custom Reports - Define Schedule - Start Hour -End Hour
Thanks

Re: List of Affinity rules?
Cluster anti-affinity rules don't get collected by v6.0.2.
