Re: Esxi Health Monitor: Host has bad drive, Monitor did not alert

Re: Esxi Health Monitor: Host has bad drive, Monitor did not alert

Do you have any other alternatives I could take besides rebooting this host? I feel like rebooting should be a last ditch effort since the host has been recently rebooted. I couldn't afford to reboot every host once a year if this is the resolution. The host is only two years old.

We are on Version 6.0 for ESX, and the host has been up for 456 days

Re: Esxi Health Monitor: Host has bad drive, Monitor did not alert

Good Evening Cubert, The drive is indeed green lighted, I had to replace it immediately as it was in a failure state for close to a month. I couldn't take the risk much longer, sorry!

Good Morning everyone, I had a client reach out to me yesterday and asked about a yellow light on their esxi server. I checked the health monitor and it showed up-to-date data on the host, no alarms.

Re: Esxi Health Monitor: Stale Check in Alerts

Thanks Cubert! I had my Scan Cycle set to 4 hours, I'm going to bump that to 8 Hours instead just to be safe. If I see anything else I will update the thread, thanks so much!

Esxi Health Monitor: Stale Check in Alerts
