Re: Group VM instances in VMware by VDC/Resource Pool
@Michael RodriguesThanks for that! If I try to add from repository, ESX VM is coming up as "New" instead of "Show Diff" I also can't see anywhere what properties are exposed by this. Is this expected behaviour, and if so is there a way I can audit the differences to decide if I need Tom's community one as well as the LogicMonitor one? Thanks again!2Views0likes0CommentsRe: ESX VM-
Thanks Matthew! Will renaming the original datasource affect any historical data? 23 hours ago, Matthew Dunham said: Apologies for the delay; now reviewed and available for download. Note that because Tom's version has the same name as our stock module, it'll overwrite the existing "ESX VM-" datasource on import. I'd strongly recommend renaming the stock "ESX VM-" prior to importing this version to make sure it works as expected. We're currently in the process of overhauling the LogicModule import with the goal of making this kind of workflowmuch easier. Stay tuned....2Views0likes0CommentsRe: Group VM instances in VMware by VDC/Resource Pool

API functionality related to instance groupingwill be published in v82 (late October). For an immediate workaround, you could use our Regular Expression automatic grouping method(which may require that you change how instances are named). Hi Sarah, It's now February and we're about to get v85. I still don't see resource pool as an instance level property - when is this coming? Thanks!3Views0likes0CommentsRe: Ability to assign legends to advanced graphs without using globs
As a workaround, could we get the ##INSTANCE## glob (or a similar one to retain the existing info) so that it shows only the actual instance name? E.g. in NetApp-land, "##INSTANCE## for any of the volume-level datasources will show SVM/Volume instead of just Volume.0Views0likes0CommentsRe: Trigger alert on combined datasource?
I'd love to see this too, it would be super useful. Unfortunately, all I can suggest at the moment (since they are separate datasources and not just separate datapoints) is to create a script datasource which combines all three metrics and lets you alert on that.5Views0likes0Comments
