Re: vRealize and Stressed VMs Report

$

You're kind of asking one question but swinging to something totally different. Here are attempted answers to both.

 

Stressed VMs report isn't the same as undersized. I'd recommend taking a look at the docs to understand what stress is, but the thresholds are set in the policy that applies to the objects in question. Stress essentially is a measure of how much for how long of the resources you've allocated are being used. It isn't a measure of a problem necessarily.

 

There is a report for oversized VMs but not for undersized. However, one could be easily generated from the view called Virtual Machine Rightsizing CPU, Memory, and Disk Space. There you should be able to get a list of those VMs that aren't just stressed but need to have resources increased.


Re: How can I create a dashboard in VMware vRealize Operations Manager to list the current VM level alerts in the Vcenter?

As far as I'm aware, there's no collected property on alerts that indicates "is from vCenter" or the like. Your best bet is to fine-tune your vROps policy to get what you want and don't want from VM alerts and build a dashboard that filters alerts based on the object type.

Re: Tip: Configuring outbound plug-ins to send localized contents

I used ko_KR.UTF-8 for Korean language.

Though I did not try other locales, UTF-8 encodings might work if one can see localized strings in vROps Web UI.

A (mostly) OS Independent metric for space used/free/provisioned on the OS root partition

$
0

When I'm creating reports for our application owners, I thought it might be nice to show the amount of free space on the OS C:\ (Win) or / (Linux) partitions. Metrics for these do exist independently in vROPs out of the box, so I thought, easy, I'll just make a super metric which takes the value for the C:\ and the value for the / for a single machine and combine them, because you're never going to have a C:\ and a / partition on the same VM.

 

Not so much. When I try do this as a super metric, even a super metric where if the value of one is less then 0 it uses 0 instead, I don't get very far - instead the dreaded "no data to display" pops up. Here's an example of what I was working on:

 

(This Resource: guestfilesystem:/|percentage<=0)?(0):(This Resource: guestfilesystem:/|percentage)+(This Resource: guestfilesystem:C:\|percentage<=0)?(0):(This Resource: guestfilesystem:C:\|percentage)

 

 

Any ideas on whether/how it's possible to create a "unified" metric like this which doesn't really care what the Guest OS is but works regardless?

I tried to do something somewhat similar (and wrote about it here) but came across essentially the same sort of thing. vROps doesn't have enough intelligence in these case to apply a super metric or even a symptom definition to a "class" of metric types, only discrete objects directly. Still, though, look what I've done and use the provided super metric to see if you'd like to approach it from the remaining space and not just remaining percentage. You may have an easier go of it then.

Hi Team,

 

We are also facing same error in Linux OS.  Is there any update on this?

This usually means the agent wasn't fully set up. Can you state the exact series of commands you used to install the agent?

Not really what I was going for I'm afraid. I'm less interested in all the remaining space on different partition names, e.g. D, E, F, G etc, I just want to be able to see the space on the root OS via one metric, rather than having to create a different View for Windows and Non-Windows VMs

Howdy,

  Just experienced this issue going from a fresh 6.3 standard VROPS install and upgrading to 6.6.1.  Worked with the excellent VROPS support team and determined that there were several 'Views' missing from my upgraded VROPS - hence the error about view not existing.  Not sure if those views were deleted as part of the upgrade, incorrectly renamed, etc...  Would recommend opening a case with VROPS support team so they can assist you in getting this resolved.

Can name of custom group be displayed as a property?

Can the name of a custom group be displayed as a property for a member VM?  We've created several custom groups using VM name as criteria.  A VM can be a member of several groups, for example, application name, location, production or test instance.   We would like to create lists and reports for VM metrics but include custom group name to filter on.  I know an alternative is to create tags in vCenter and add the tags as a property.  But we would like to keep the grouping/identity contained to vRealize Operations.

Thanks for the reply. I thought it was strange there is undersized VM report considering there is an oversized. In the old vCOPS there used to be this but for whatever reason it was removed in vRealize Operations Manager.

Has anyone configured VROPS Kubernetes Adapter ?

Hi,

I deployed the PAK for Kubernetes, and i'm facing issue while configuring the adapter.

 

Credentials seems to be fine. When i TEST CONNECTION, the certificate popup appeared, but after, i have another popup telling :

 

Unable to establish a valid connection to the target system. Error in fetching the health of Kubernetes master https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

The user guide found in the marketplace has no troubleshooting section. Does anyone know what is it ?

Does vROPs have the ability to do automatic remediation for violations found with the new PCI/HIPPA hardening guides?

With the new PCI/HIPPA hardening guides that were introduced with vROPs 6.6, does vROPs have the ability to automate the remediation of violation from the PCI/HIPPA guide?

 

Is this something where you must have vRealize Orchestrator setup in the environment as well?

 

If this is possible, is there documentation/forum anywhere about how one might set this up? 

 

 

Thank you in advance for any help with this.

No, there's no automated remediation of all those things. The actions framework is still limited, and the number of possible remediations that would have to take place are extremely numerous, plus doing so automatically (depending on what it is) may break things.

I dont think it can and i also agree with the vsphere tags.

 

We wanted to remove as much reliance on vcenter as possible so we started to create custom properties with in vrops using the rest API and it is so good.

 

All you do is create the property (or multiple) and add a value and you can use this in reports or as custom group membership rules.

 

here is a link to how to create them. There may be better posts out there but this is the first that came up for me

 

Creating Custom Properties in vROPs – Kloud Konnect 

 

One thing to remember if you do start using custom properties is that you cannot currently delete a property once it is created. Also create a folder to put them in as it makes the property page cleaner

 

Below is an example of ours in a folder that we uses for our automated deployments (this is at cluster level but we also use them at CDC level s well

I have setup all the required intergrations between vrops and vrli and vrli and vrops.

 

I configured a simple quary and added it to an alert below

 

 

All this does is create an alert when a user ssh into a host. I can see it triggering

 

 

But i dont see anything under my object in vrops or the fallback object. Anyone any ideas on what i have done wrong or where to look.

I wrote a blog that explores this topic somewhat, look towards the bottom for an explanation of how that last radio button works and its limitations. Also, I ran into the same thing when testing, and I believe the problem is your "more than 0" statement as this doesn't work reliably. Try an inverse statement like "less than 2" to see if it starts behaving properly.
