"AllOk" "true", "false" Roll-up health check to monitor overall health of VMware Identity Manager Connector Services.
"ViewServiceOk" "true", "false" True, if connection to the View Broker is successful. This attribute will be true if View sync is disabled.
"HorizonDaaSTenantOk" "true", "false" True, if connection to Horizon Cloud is successful. This attribute will be true if Horizon Cloud sync is disabled.
"DirectoryServiceOk" "true", "false" True, if connection to the directory is successful. This attribute will be true if directory sync is disabled.

"AppManagerServiceOk" "true", "false" True, if able to authenticate correctly to the AppManager.
"NumberOfWarnAlerts" 0 - 1000 Number of warning alerts that triggered on this Connector. These are available on the Connector Sync Log as “Notes.” They can indicate that a resource was synced in that included a user or group that is not in VMware Identity Manager. Depending on the configuration, this may be by design. The counter continues to increment on each sync until Warn and Error alerts equal 1000 and an administrator clears the alerts.
"NumberOfErrorAlerts" 0 - 1000 Number of error alerts that triggered on this Connector. These are available on the Connector Sync Log as “Error.” They can indicate that a sync failed. The counter continues to increment on each sync until Warn and Error alerts equal 1000 and an administrator clears the alerts.
