Thanks for your reply Leon. Honestly I really don't know what that means, but it sounds convoluted. All I know is we're using agent based polling on our Windows servers and simply wish that information could be pulled as a component monitor like all our other components. I also don't want a separate polling just to get…

While testing a new Beta is interesting, unfortunately I don't have the time currently. Is there a way to do this NOW? I'm mainly interested in how I would report on the VMs in question should a host go down (which I already have alerts for). Is there some sort of variable that will list the VMs that this host contained…

I don't know what event(s) apply here. All I know is at some point I have a host failure, HA kicks in and restarts the VMs on other hosts. I'm asking how to properly capture that, as well as include the affected VMs. VMAN clearly tracks which VMs are residing on a given host, but I see no way to capture any of this…

Thanks for your reply, however this is already configured. Monitoring is not the problem. Alerting is. I want to get an alert saying which VMs were affected by a host's failure, e.g. which VMs were force-powered off and rebooted on another host by HA. 

I have confirmed I do have VMAN. 

Interesting solution, however given this solution doesn't really factor in timestamps of the events, wouldn't this solution get potentially confused regarding the actual status of the service? For example: For example if it goes down (event 1 triggered), comes up (event 2 triggered) and goes back down again (event 3…

I was expecting that. Sigh. Now the question is, how to actually go about doing this. Sounds like I'll have to search for both expected events each poll and if the "up" event is newer than the older event, it's up, otherwise it's down. Thoughts?

At one point we had VMAN.. at least I remember a separate server that was built for it that had its own login, however at some point I recall that server being removed as I was informed the VMan stuff was rolled into the core Orion services. I'm not 100% sure if that's accurate or not. So I can't say for sure I really have…

The issue has cleared on its own. The alert is gone and the VIM_DiskFiles table no longer lists the phantom log files. i can only assume the process that refreshes the files on the datastore occurs at some very low polling interval. I would like to know how to change this interval and/or force it to run when needed. Is…

Necropost, but since this question is still unanswered and open I guess it's OK? At any rate it's 2017, has anyone found a proper way to handle this? I have zero need to have a volume serial number be visible.
