Use the vSAN Health dashboard to monitor the health of your vSAN cluster.
You can use the vSAN Health dashboard to monitor the status of the cluster components, diagnose issues, and troubleshoot problems. The dashboard displays the critical and important alerts that need immediate attention.
How to Use the Dashboard
The vSAN Clusters widget lists all the clusters in the environment with issues if the cluster health score is below 60 or has any critical alerts.
It shows the cluster names, ESXi hosts, resync, and color-coded health and risk of the cluster. vSAN resync is a utilization metric, but its presence can impact performance. If the table is all green, no need to analyze it further.
You can focus on issues that need immediate attention and resolution for your clusters to be up and running. This dashboard displays the alerts triggered in your vSAN cluster and provides insights into the cause of the alerts.
The Red Alert column displays the critical alerts in the cluster that need immediate attention. If there are red alerts, click the cluster. The Alerts tab displays all the alert lists. Click a particular alert and check the alert details, related alerts, and potential evidence related to that alert. Under Alert Details, you can check the recommended remediation to troubleshoot the specific issue. Click the Knowledge Base article for more details.
Click any cluster to view the properties of the selected cluster in the Property of Selected Cluster widget. These are the properties that helps you understand the cluster health issues. If something is not there, check the alerts in the alert lists.
Once you select any particular cluster, the alerts in that cluster are listed in the Alert Lists widget. Click an alert to view the alert details, related alerts, and potential evidence. It also displays the alert symptoms.
