There are occasions where a VM cannot be monitored by any monitoring protocols (SNMP, WMI, nor API), in our case it's RedHat CoreOS.
Most core metrics can be monitored through VMAN (CPU, Memory, Network utilisation and disk/volumes/mount points) and while there's a workaround to alert on a single volume's usage (https://solarwindscore.my.site.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/Need-to-find-proper-way-to-alert-on-individual-Virtual-Machine-component-volume-space-utilization?language=en_US ), it is not ideal to alert on the parent object (Orion.VIM.VirtualMachines) instead of the actual object (Orion.VIM.VirtualMachineVolumes) since this method would raise a single alert on multiple affected volumes within a single VM.
Can we get some functionality to target VirtualMachineVolumes, even if that's only by using Custom SQL/SWQL?
