How can I configure a notification profile for VMware related events/monitors?

Configuring notification profiles for VMware devices helps you forward the alert to the relevant person at the earliest, enabling quicker resolution.

• Click on Settings → Notifications → Add profile, and select the type of profile you wish to create.
  

  

• Based on the medium selected, provide all necessary details and click 'Next' to go the Criteria selection window.
• Choose 'When any selected virtual device has a problem' option. You can select the option to receive alerts for all VM related alarms, or you can tap on the green "Selected" button to choose either or both of these conditions:
  • General: for VMware events
  • Virtual Device Performance Monitors Threshold Alarms: for monitors with VIWebService protocol thresholds
  
  

  

• Once you've selected the required option(s), click 'Done' and 'Next'.
• In the following window, choose the devices that you wish to associate this notification profile to and click 'Next' again.
  

  

• Finally, choose the necessary trigger conditions, provide a name for the profile, and click on 'Save'.

Alternatively, you can click on Inventory → Click on the required VM device → Click on the Notifications icon and Add/Associate Notification profiles to the particular device.
