Managed Entity Get Config Status

Managed Entity Get Config Status

The configStatus indicates whether or not the system has detected a configuration issue involving this entity.

For example, it might have detected a duplicate IP address or MAC address, or a host in a cluster might be out of compliance. The meanings of the configStatus values are:

  • red: A problem has been detected involving the entity.
  • yellow: A problem is about to occur or a transient condition has occurred (For example, reconfigure fail-over policy).
  • green: No configuration issues have been detected.
  • gray: The configuration status of the entity is not being monitored.

A green status indicates only that a problem has not been detected; it is not a guarantee that the entity is problem-free.

The configIssue property contains a list of the problems that have been detected. In releases after vSphere API 5.0, vSphere Servers might not generate property collector update notifications for this property. To obtain the latest value of the property, you can use PropertyCollector methods RetrievePropertiesEx or WaitForUpdatesEx. If you use the PropertyCollector.WaitForUpdatesEx method, specify an empty string for the version parameter. Any other version value will not produce any property values as no updates are generated.
