Alerts and vsphere Tags or Folder exclusions

EFMan

Hi All,

I am new to Solarwinds.

I would like to monitor a vSphere environment. I have added the vCenter to Solarwinds, and it scans and bombards me with things that are either good or bad, everything fine...

But now i want to exclude certain vm's from an alert for example i want to exclude them from the "VMs with Large Snapshots" Alert. I would like to do that either by configuring my alert to ignore: "vsphere vm folder xyz" Or that i can tell them ignore all objects with vsphere tag xyz.

For me it is not possible to do exclusions like: VM-Name not like "vm1"

Can you please help me finding the right path of doing this?

Thanks in advance

BR
