VMW Stale Data Management Rule

This rule identifies any data that collected before a pre-defined number of days, as configured by the VMW:ageInDays registry variable. The global default value of this variable is 30.

Virtual Switch Rules

This section lists and describes the virtual switch rules.

Rules in this section:

VMW Distributed Virtual Switch Available Ports

This rule checks for available ports on VMware distributed virtual switches.

VMWDistributedVirtualSwitch

Table 252. Rule Definition

The number of available ports on a distributed virtual switch is greater than the value set by the VMW:DistributedVirtualSwitchAvailablePorts.warning registry variable. The global default value of this variable is 20, meaning that in a default installation each of the monitored distributed virtual switches has more than 20 available ports.

Normal

None

The number of available ports on a distributed virtual switch reached the value set by the VMW:DistributedVirtualSwitchAvailablePorts.warning registry variable. The global default value of this variable is 20, meaning that in a default installation a Warning alarm is generated if a distributed virtual switch has 20 or fewer available ports.

Warning

None

The number of available ports on a distributed virtual switch reached the value set by the VMW:DistributedVirtualSwitchAvailablePorts.critical registry variable. The global default value of this variable is 10, meaning that in a default installation a Critical alarm is generated if a distributed virtual switch has 10 or fewer available ports.

Critical

None

The number of available ports on a distributed virtual switch reached the value set by the VMW:DistributedVirtualSwitchAvailablePorts.fatal registry variable. The global default value of this variable is 5, meaning that in a default installation a Fatal alarm is generated if a distributed virtual switch has 5 or fewer available ports.

Fatal

None

VMW Distributed Virtual Switch Network Utilization

This rule checks the levels of network utilization on VMware distributed virtual switches.

VMWDistributedVirtualSwitch

Table 253. Rule Definition

The levels of network utilization on all monitored distributed virtual switches is below the percentage set by the VMW:DistributedVirtualSwitchNetwork.warning variable. The global default value of this variable is 75, meaning that in a default installation the network utilization of each of the monitored distributed virtual switches is lower than 75%.

Normal

None

The level of network utilization of a distributed virtual switch reached the percentage set by the VMW:DistributedVirtualSwitchNetwork.warning variable. The global default value of this variable is 75, meaning that in a default installation a Warning alarm is generated if the network utilization of a distributed virtual switch is 75% or higher.

Warning

None

The level of network utilization of a distributed virtual switch reached the percentage set by the VMW:DistributedVirtualSwitchNetwork.critical variable. The global default value of this variable is 85, meaning that in a default installation a Critical alarm is generated if the network utilization of a distributed virtual switch is 85% or higher.

Critical

None

The level of network utilization of a distributed virtual switch reached the percentage set by the VMW:DistributedVirtualSwitchNetwork.fatal variable. The global default value of this variable is 95, meaning that in a default installation a Fatal alarm is generated if the network utilization of a distributed virtual switch is 95% or higher.

Fatal

None
