Use VMware Infrastructure Health to monitor the health of the VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) cloud account in VMware Aria Operations. You can also monitor the VCF applications along with their services.
Before you start monitoring the VMware Cloud Foundation cloud account, you must activate and configure the VMware Cloud Foundation cloud account from the page. The domains you want to monitor should have their vCenter and NSX configured in each domain. For more information, see Configuring VMware Cloud Foundation Cloud Account. All VMware Cloud Foundation domains are automatically discovered along with their connection details and the credentials of the underlying adapters for vCenter Server and NSX.
VMware Infrastructure Health collects data related to availability, services, virtual machines, certificates, passwords, and active alerts for each configured
VMware Cloud Foundation cloud account and its domains. You can view this data from the
page. For more information, see the 'Monitoring VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Operations' topic in the
VMware Aria Operations User Guide.
Note: For
VMware Cloud Foundation version 4.5.1 and above, certificates and password data will be collected for the SDDC Manager, vCenter, and
NSX applications only. For versions below 4.5.1, no data will be displayed for certificates and passwords.
