vCenter Monitoring of Event Logs

Is it possible to monitor the vCenter event logs using LogicMonitor? We’d like to capture hostd crash events along with other events.

  • We don’t have LogMon so not sure how we’re going to be able to proceed without purchasing additional licensing.

    Ah, in that case, you’d need to write an eventsource. Eventsources can parse incoming syslog for matching patterns, or you can script it to go to the vCenter API to query for events that happened since the last query.
