Get the health state of the VCSA components

Introduction

The collection provides several modules that you can use to know the state of the different components of the VCSA.

Scenario requirements

You”ve got an up and running vCenter Server Appliance.

Health state per component

The database:

- name: Get the database heath status
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_health_database_info:

response

{
    "changed": false,
    "value": {
        "messages": [
            {
                "message": {
                    "args": [],
                    "default_message": "DB state is Degraded",
                    "id": "desc"
                },
                "severity": "WARNING"
            }
        ],
        "status": "DEGRADED"
    }
}

The database storage:

- name: Get the database storage heath status
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_health_databasestorage_info:

response

{
    "changed": false,
    "value": "green"
}

The system load:

- name: Get the system load status
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_health_load_info:

response

{
    "changed": false,
    "value": "green"
}

The memory usage:

- name: Get the system mem status
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_health_mem_info:

response

{
    "changed": false,
    "value": "green"
}

The system status:

- name: Get the system health status
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_health_system_info:

response

{
    "changed": false,
    "value": "green"
}

The package manager:

- name: Get the health of the software package manager
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_health_softwarepackages_info:

response

{
    "changed": false,
    "value": "green"
}

The storage system:

- name: Get the health of the storage system
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_health_storage_info:

response

{
    "changed": false,
    "value": "green"
}

The swap usage:

- name: Get the health of the swap
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_health_swap_info:

response

{
    "changed": false,
    "value": "green"
}

Monitoring

You can also retrieve information from the VCSA monitoring backend. First you need the name of the item. To get a full list of these items, run:

- name: Get the list of the monitored items
  vmware.vmware_rest.appliance_monitoring_info:
  register: result
