vROps is really frustrating….
This morning, I encountered another issue. The Object Type for the symptoms I’ve already defined suddenly changed. See screenshot below:
The Object Type for the highlighted items below was “Windows”, as it has been before. I was about to change the value of the thresholds when I noticed it is now “AIX”. You know for sure that AIX objects does not have C:\ local|NTFS metrics.
I’ve created these symptoms a long time ago as vROps / Epops doesn’t have a built-in metric to monitor each Windows drive. I created symptoms for every drive letters up to N:. Now it’s going to take me hours to re-create them.
