What can be monitored for VMware VSAN?

Hi All,

Need some assistance. We have been requested to check the parameters that can monitored in Solarwinds for vSAN? This could mean both network part, storage and at virtualization level.

I have mentioned the expectations below.

Monitor System performance	Monitor CPU, Memory utilization
Monitor vSAN Cluster	Monitor the health status of vSAN cluster
Monitor vSAN Capacity	Monitor vSAN datastore utilization
Monitor vSAN Network	Monitor vSAN network health
Monitor Virtual Devices in the vSAN Cluster	Monitor the status of virtual disks in the vSAN cluster.
Monitor Physical Devices in vSAN Datastores	Monitor the status of physical devices in vSAN Datastores
Monitor vSAN Health Service Alarms	Monitor default vSAN alarms related to the cluster, hosts, and existing vSAN licenses.
Monitor VMkernel system events	Monitor if any failures in the cluster

hello! I'm curious whether deduplication/compression will be part of your vsan requirements here. we are currently working on this in feature request so any details would be helpful!

We did not have any such requirement when this discussion was there from our internal team.

But deduplication if available, then it might help... probably we get some more inputs from folks who are needing this feature...
