That is my understanding as well.
But the question is if anyone know another way to get the info into vRealize.

Query related to vROPS health check
We have 10 VC servers and we have upgraded 8 to 6.7 version and 2 VC are still running on 6.0 version. We have vROPS in our environment to collect the health report.
After the upgrade 6.7 VC's failed to pull the report and we are suspecting this is because of TLS 1.2 on VCSA 6.7.
We have a management server from where we are running the script. We enabled the TLS 1.2 on the server but still having the same issue.
Kindly let us know the best way to resolve this issue to fetch health report on both 6.0 & 6.7 VC's.

Lincese Requirement for vRealize Application Management Pack & OS monitoring
Sorry if it's been answered or posted somewhere..
We have the vROPs 7.5 Advance license and want to use the new telegraf agent instead of ePOPs to monitor OS resource.
"Monitoring of OS Resources (CPU, Disk, Memory, Network) Telegraf agents gather operating system metrics and monitor availability of remote platforms and applications."
From what I'm understanding of the new feature with 7.5. I would need to deploy the application remote collector/ Application Management pack then use that to deploy the telegraf agent to the VMs. But from the datasheet is that I need have "enterprise" level license even though I just want to monitor the OS resources. The telegraph agent can do both Monitor OS resources and application monitoring but... we only want to use it to monitor the OS resources.
Can someone shed some light on my confusion of licensing and how the way the new feature works regarding it. Do I really need the Enterprise license to monitor OS resources with telegraf?

build relationships between different adapters objects
Hello community, I have some questions doing custom dashboards on vrops 7.5, can you please point me in the right way?...
Im trying to build an application in a dynamic manner and I m having relationships issues.
I have created one custom group as an application level and some custom groups as an application tiers.
One of this application tier is a custom group with dynamic tagging based selection.
Another application tier is a custom group with object type netapp LUN and with ancestor relationship with app tier VM group so it is been automatically populed. This is done because the netapp adapterś object brings a relationship between LUN and VM.
Now I want to create another app tier custom group with servers of HP adapter but only the ones who current hosts the VM application group, but I cant apply relationship beacuse doesnt exist.
How can build a generic relationship to accomplish this goal?
I would appreciate your help, Im breaking my head looking for possible ways to do it!!!
Regards!

Re: View / Report to Display ESXi Host Licensing
Run a script against your vcenter to pull the info out then use the REST API to create custom properties against the object in question in vrops. We do this for a storage type property for billing. Dont ask me how to do it as i am not a scripter i just know that we do

Re: UCS management pack gives connection error on 1 of our 4 UCS Manager instances
Did you find a solution to this problem because I am also getting the same issue.
We have several UCS Domains and I am using a local UCS account to attempt authentication while adding the first UCS Domain in vROPS.
Any help greatly appreciated.

vROPs Mgr 7.5 : vCloud Director Metric : vCloud Virtual machine : VM|Chain Length not populating.
In a vROPs Manager 7.5 environment with the Management Pack for vCloud Director (5.1) installed and configured, the vCloud Director Metrics for vCloud Virtual machine are not populating. Specifically, I want to see the VM Chain Length for each virtual machine within every vApp (deployed and template).
I have checked the view, 'vCloud Director - vCloud Virtual Machine - Summary' and other locations within vROPs UI but unable to pull the data.
Does any one have any insight into what is missing?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for reading.

Re:Connection to Windows share fails (offloading reports)
Where would the failed attempt be logged? I get a successfull test of the network plugin but nothing happens. I can scrape logs manually, or I could use log insight which is connected to and monitoring Vrops.

Failed attempts can be found in view-bridge.log(s)

Re: Lincese Requirement for vRealize Application Management Pack & OS monitoring
Using vRealize Operations Advanced edition, you can monitor operating systems in vRealize Operations Manager or you can monitor operating systems and applications in Wavefront. Using vRealize Operations Enterprise edition, you can monitor operating systems and applications in vRealize Operations Manager or Wavefront. Please refer the below document:

Re: Rabbit MQ
What problem are you actually facing, what have you done? what versions are you using, Windows or Linux RabbitMQ, where in the deployment cycle are you? do you have your RabbitMQ service up and running?
so many questions before we can even start to look at what is wrong.

Number of vmotions metric in vrops 7.5 is zero for vcenter 6.7
Hi all,
Just checking in quickly before I log a call with VMware to see if I've missed some of the recent changes.
We upgraded our vROps from 7.0 to 7.5 a while ago with little or no trouble. A little over a week ago we also upgraded our vcenter from 6.5 to 6.7u2. From that moment, the "number of vmotions" metric on the Datacenter, Cluster Resource and ESX server objects are zero. As if there's no vmotions at all, which is not true.
Has this metric been changed or disabled?
Cheers

Re: Number of vmotions metric in vrops 7.5 is zero for vcenter 6.7
I am 7.5 vrops and 6.7 u2 vcenter and the metric works ok for me. Check your policy to make sure it is enabled is all i can suggest

Re: View / Report to Display ESXi Host Licensing
If you are not into scripting you may be able to do it depending on how you licence your hosts will determine how complicated the below will be.
This will only work in 7.5
Create a custom group for a licence version. Create your membership rules to add the hosts that have that licence version (this is where it could be complicated)
When creating the custom group at the bottom expand the custom properties section and create a licence property and what ever string value you want for that licence name.
Every host that gets added to that group will get the property with the licence name attached

Re: Number of vmotions metric in vrops 7.5 is zero for vcenter 6.7
I checked the policy, but all four instances of the metric are enabled by inheritance. But your answer was what I was looking for: it should work. So it's either configuration or a problem, not a feature. I'll take it up with support. Thanks.

ResourceConfig.getStatus does not exist. Is there any other way to get collection status of a resource object?
I want to remove the resource objects from the inventory explorer of my adapter which has collection status as RESOURCE_STATUS_NO_DATA_RECEIVING. Since vROPs does not immediately remove them, they are getting accumulated and causing a slowdown of the system.
What I'm thinking of doing is checking the collection status of each resource and if it is RESOURCE_STATUS_NO_DATA_RECEIVING, I'll set the collection state as RESOURCE_STATE_NOT_EXISTING which will be removed by vROPS according to this (VMware Knowledge Base).
But when I'm getting the ResourceConfig using getMonitoringResource(ResourceKey), It is just giving me the collection state of the resource using ResourceConfig.getState() but not the status.
The function to get status as mentioned in documentation (vrealize-operations-manager-SDK-70-programming-guide) does not exist which is ResourceConfig.getStatus().
Is there any way I can get the status of resource object? Or any other way I can tackle the problem I'm facing?
I thought of getting resource status for object type Process using ResourceDto object but I could not create the ResourceDto object for the Process Object type.
I'm using vROps SDK version 7.0
