Use vCentre Event Console to diagnose connectivity

darynakovyrina — Tue, 19 Dec 2023 15:12:53 GMT

Go to Settings > Cloud and virtualization > VMware, and select Test connection.
In the vSphere web client, go to Event Console. For details, see View Events in the vSphere Web Client.
Check for events related to the user that is set up in Dynatrace credentials. With the correct network setup and correct credentials, you should expect a pair of UserLoginSessionEvent and UserLogoutSessionEvent entries from the IPs of one or more ActiveGates that have VMWare monitoring enabled and that have tested the connection.
Check for errors visible in the events. If there is no entry at all or no entry for the ActiveGate you were expecting, check your network setup.
