Hi Folks,
I have configured VM availability monitoring using the vmware.vm.availability metric with the following filter conditions:
- vm.power.state = PoweredOn
- vm.connection.state = connected
The purpose of this filter is to exclude VMs that are Powered Off but still connected, which is commonly observed with decommissioned VMs.
We have tested this configuration, and during testing we noticed that when a VM transitions to:
- vm.power.state = PoweredOff
- vm.connection.state = connected
the VM is filtered out of the result set, and consequently no alert is triggered.
Has anyone encountered a similar situation and successfully configured and validated Davis Anomaly Detection for this use case? Alternatively, is there another recommended approach to achieve the desired alerting behavior?
Regards,
AK
