Missing vmw_object_id Field in the First Log Message After Integration with VMware Products

After integrating vRealize Log Insight with VMware products, the first log message does not contain the vmw_object_id field.

Problem

The first log message that you receive after you integrate vRealize Log Insight with vCenter Server and vRealize Operations does not contain the associated vmw_object_id field. The missing field can have an impact on the alert delivery mechanism when a vRealize Operations object is specified as an alert target.

Note: Ensure that the vCenter Server is also integrated with vRealize Operations.

Solution

Wait for two minutes. The next log message that you receive will contain the vmw_object_id field.
