All The Virtualization Manager team is working to resolve this and I will make sure to update this thread when we have more information. This is a known issue with the vcenter devicelatency metric, were it shows data in years.

Just to confirm , you are going into All Settings - (THRESHOLDS & POLLING) Virtualization Thresholds ?

I'm glad you got it figured out!! Thanks for posting your fix.

Hello Joshua I see that support has responded to your case. Did running the check disk and subsequent reboot resolve the issue?

NPM does not collect datastore information, you will need VMAN to get that information.

Logan This is the expected behavior. When virtualization manager is integrated you will the following this menu. When VMAN is not integrated and you are using the integrated VIM polling from SAM you can access it under the home the home menu item.

Without viewing the logs I cant be certain of the issue but I believe a very similar issue was resolved with the last update that was released. Again without seeing the logs I cant be for certain it is the same thing. Any chance of moving to 6.2.2?

Which version of Commvault was this made for?

Since the current VMAN dashboard is written in flex SAM monitoring will not be able to alert on new content creation. In order to achieve what you need WPM would need to be used to alert for any new content created in VMAN. There is a SAM monitor for VMAN that we are working on but it will be utilized to alert if VMAN…

Andrew I have posted Patch Manager 2.1 Beta 1 which contains the Beta survey and signup. The post will contain a high level view of some of the features that have been added to Patch Manager 2.1, please check it out and sign up if you have the opportunity to participate. Again thank you for your constructive feedback and…

Kevin I would recommend opening a support ticket to fine tune your VMAN polling. If configuration is pegging the CPU then I would venture to guess that there is some changes that can be made on the VMAN appliance as well as possibly introducing federated pollers to reduce the load.

Joshua There is a known bug in the vmware API for hardware status. To confirm this can you verify what the vcenter API is sending to vman by browsing to https://[your_vcenter_server]/mob you should see the Managed Object Browser. * Then find the ESX host object by using the following properties: content -> rootFolder ->…

Max If you add the host as a node you should be able to poll and alert on interface details.

hey sorry for the late response. The polling behavior you explain is definitely not the intended response after removing an application monitor. The issue sounds similar to issues that necessitate a repair of the job engine. To repair the job engine: Repair the Job Engine * Open the SolarWinds Installers directory. Notes:*…

Ed Can you confirm that the Orphaned VMDK file still exits in your environment. Potential file deletion errors occur because the vmdk was already removed before the configuration poll had not refreshed to reflect the deletion of the VMDK.

Michael Add the credentials in the VMAN appliance. When you integrate with Orion it will use the VMAN credentials. Service release 2 for VMAN and VIM resolve some of the integration issues that were occurring when admins configured both virtual devices and credentials on the appliance and VIM.

Robin The best way to handle this to ensure that this is remediated as quick as possible would be to open a support ticket as Lukas recommended. This way we can get access to the full diagnostics logs and escalate if necessary.

Does the appliance health show that configuration collection completed successfully?

Hey Matthew do you have an ongoing support case number I can check out. On the surface it seems similiar to a couple of different problems I have seen before but i want to touch base with the support rep to see what we can cross of first.

Virtual Manager only supports VMware (usinng the vmware API) and Hyper-V (using WMI) and unfortunatly will not support VMI Unix. In faact Virtualization Manager doe snot leverage SNMP at all. NPM and SAM support SNMP but you will only get host or individual statistics and hypervisor level metrics or VM to host relationship.

Bret If you check on the polling is it showing completed, in progress, or configuration polling failures? You can view this by logging onto the VMAN appliance and selecting setup and going to Configuration Summary.

From Virtualization Manager go to the Explore tab and select Content and search for EC2 Select the EC2 report you need to modify and choose configure in the lower left of the screeen From within the EC2 trend select the Criteria tab and from here you can modify the cost used to calculate the AWS pricing and save the…

Let me look into the 1st report but the 2nd report can be found in the following place: If you are on 6.1.1 - the following link will show you how to create this report. (Re: Create Report for Virtual Machines Including its Host Server Name) On Virtualization manager 6.2 the report can found In Orion under Virtualization…

Great question Operational State is the state of the guest operating system installed on the VM, and the only way we can know this state of the OS is if VMware Tools is installed on the guest OS (or if you are polling with SAM.). The VMware API property we read for this is guestState Guest Status is the Solarwinds status…

I agree with Russ for you to open a ticket. Once you have a case number send number send that to me and I will track it from the SolarWinds side.

Yes you can monitor a hyper-v instance from the same VMAN instance. You will just need to add your hyper-v hosts as a data collection and add the correct credentials in setup

I just wanted to confirm that this issue has not come back and that reintegrating was the permanent fix.

Joshua We can provide the average and peak but we do not provide the standard deviation. Was standard deviation a must have for the architect or only for certain scenarios?

Hey Ed, Few questions for you. Do the nodes in question show up in VMAN? Are the nodes VMs, Hosts, or vCenters? Is this the message you are getting?

I would be very interested in this as well.
