How to check Path Down or Path loss to datastores

Guest File Not Showing Free Space
I'm attempting to create a view that will show the free space in GB on each virtual machine, shouldn't be a problem...
I can see the size in GB, Usage in % and Usage in GB, the other option that I have is for showing Free GB on the guest file system, but this just returns a "-", and it is the same for all drives - C:\ D:\ G:\ etc
I've checked that the machines are running, any thoughts?

Re: How to check Path Down or Path loss to datastores
In vcenter task & events, I can see an info message:
Lost access to volume 56b9cab9-XXXXXX (datastore_name) due to connectivity issues. Recovery attempt is in progress and outcome will be reported shortly.
How can I check that if that issue is addressed in vRealize?

Re: vROPS Analytics process running 100 Percent & causing multiple stability issues after upgrade to 6.3
Hi Guys,
Thought I would update you. We found the issue…. and the issues are actually nothing to do with the upgrade to 6.3
Essentially, Swap had been removed / disabled from each of the vROPS appliances somehow which was making everything go crazy after the upgrade had happened and started impacting on the Analytics process. However this is not the end of it more of the start of it.
To our horror each of the partition tables where swap is supposed to live are corrupt, not only that the following is also corrupt on both Master and Master Replica
/dev/mapper/data-db
/dev/mapper/data-core
We have no idea how this happened and cannot find any trace of malicious intent or trail of any kind from historic commands... I guess we will never know.
This has found it's way into all of our backups with no way to recover. GSS have worked on the issue with us and confirmed that we will have to re-deploy to get to a fully supported position which sucks!

Re: Data Retriever is not initialized yet. Please wait..
Unfortunately, the server stays at "Waiting for Analytics" until it times out. I have followed the suggestions in a couple of KB's:
I did find some heap files to clear...
I don't see the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistance-net.rules file at all
In the collector log I am seeing the following:
2016-11-15 14:34:14,866 INFO [Heartbeat] com.integrien.alive.collector.HeartbeatThread.doHeartBeat - Heartbeat failed: Unable to connect to any locators in the list [/10.2.75.61:6061]

As it is all on the one node, not sure why it would not be able to find it.
Any further suggestions would be welcome. As mentioned previously, I am seriously hoping to avoid rebuilding this thing from scratch.

vROPS Licensing
Looking to get some basic information on how licensing actually works. We're monitoring hosts, datastores, VMs, etc, but it looks like ONLY VMs are taking up a license. Is this correct? Also, are powered-off VMs using up licenses, and if so can I make it NOT do this?

vRops Critical Alert Definition -Error synchronizing user privilege information with VMware Virtual Center
Good morning all,
I keep getting alerts from vRops that state the following:
"Error synchronizing user privilege information with VMware Virtual Center
Error synchronizing user privilege information for a VMware vRealize Authentication Source that corresponds to a VMware Virtual Center instance."
It appears that this alert is generated when a user has a failed attempt to log in. I checked with the users but they are able to log in successfully. Does anyone know what other possible causes are for this type of alert and how I can get rid of it or fix the issue?
Thanks,
Tim

Re: vROPS Licensing
Hello ,
If one had purchased Standalone product edition that will be Licensed per OSI and if one got it bundled with VMware suite that will be Licensed per CPU , vROPS has it's own license-management GUI which provides administration of license keys , If needed one can deploy mix editions in a single vROPS instance. By default vROPS would not account for powered off VMs, but it will allocate an OSI to a VM which you didn't intend to monitor or powered off at a later stage.
there are 2 default groups (Unlicensed and Product Licensing), All the running VMs from all vCenters will be added automatically to the Licensed group. Unlicensed group contain all members with expired key etc.
In order to exclude the powered off or test VMs which you do not want to consider monitoring edit the Licensed group membership by “excluding” the unwanted VMs:
Go to Administration > Licensing > License Groups > Product Licensing Add Members > Object type: Virtual Machine and Choose whichever property better applies to the target VM () , Something similar to shown below
Thanks

Log Insight can do that for you. You can get the error from Log Insight send to vRops.

I'm not sure from vRealize but you can can SSH into a host and run esxcfg-mpath command like I have listed below. You can see the state is active and it will list all paths.
~ # esxcfg-mpath -l

Re: vROPS Licensing
Thanks, so even though my vROPS install is monitoring over 700 'objects', I'm only using a licence for each "VM" that it's monitoring? Here's a screenshot of my license manager...

Configuration about VROPS SNMP Outbound Plugin - VROPS 6.0
Hi,
This is in VROPS version 6.0.0
Please advise how to specifically send SNMP Traps to outside from VROPS data node always.
I was working for sending SNMP traps expecting receiving from one node, but observed there is inconsistency as SNMP traps being sent from data node and sometime master node.
How to enforce always the SNMP traffic is being sent from Data Node all the time.
Kindly reply as soon as possible.
Thanks and Best Regards,

Re: vROPs - Report to show new VMs created
Don't think there's a way to do it. Log Inisght can, do it and you could set it up to send you and email every week.

Re: Guest File Not Showing Free Space
There is a Metric "Total Guest File System Free (GB)" under "Guest File System stats" that will show you the remaining disk capacity.
To be able to use it make sure of the following:
- VMware Tools are installed.
- The VM is / VMs are powered on.
- You have selected the right Metric and a Cluster/Host/VM that is accessible.
- You don't have that Metric transformed or selected wrong Units.
- The Time Settings are correct.
- You don't have further filters applied that would prevent this Metric to show the correct results.
I quickly calculated the given figures as described colorfully with the formula in the image ;-) and it looks pretty okay to me (except for some really minor rounding differences I presume).
I hope this helps!

Re: vROPS Licensing
Correct. Licensing is either at the host level based on CPUs using vSOM or vCloud Suite or per VM (aka OSI). In either case, objects themselves are not licensed just the VMs
↧
Re: vROPS Licensing
Ok, so how can I go about no monitoring any? Anything/everything I've tried with modifying the licensed group hasn't resulted in the "licensable objects' number going down.

vRealize 6.4 Python Actions Adapter missing?
I just installed vRealize 6.4 and do not see the Python Actions Adapter listed under Adapter Type in the configure Solutions option.
I was able to configure the vCenter Adapter, however, I don't see the Python Adapter.
Has this changed in 6.4 as I was able to install int in6.2?
thanks
