Alerts in NSX-T
NSX-T
Alert definitions are combinations of symptoms and recommendations that identify
problem areas in your environment and generate alerts on which you can act. You can import
all
NSX-T
alerts into vRealize
Operations Manager
, allowing the users to manage
and monitor these alerts from a single location. This integration between NSX-T
and vRealize
Operations Manager
improves overall visibility and simplifies operations, making
it easier to identify and address issues.You can directly import alerts from VMware
NSX (formerly known as VMware NSX-T) into
vRealize
Operations Manager
by setting the Import Alerts from
NSX
field to True
while configuring the
NSX-T
adapter instance. For details, see the
topic 'Configuring the NSX-T
Adapter' in the
VMware Aria Operations
Configuration Guide
.Depending on the number of alerts and the
system's performance, importing the alerts into
vRealize
Operations Manager
may take some time.Importing alerts is not supported for
NSX Integration through VMware Cloud on AWS.
