Description
Due to heavy volume of vmwNsxTDataCenterEventId alarms, the alarm service has temporarily stopped reporting alarms of this type. The NSX UI and GET /api/v1/alarms NSX API are not reporting new instances of these alarms; however, syslog entries and SNMP traps (if enabled) are still being emitted reporting the underlying event details. When the underlying issues causing the heavy volume of vmwNsxTDataCenterEventId alarms are addressed, the alarm service will start reporting new vmwNsxTDataCenterEventId alarms when new issues are detected again. Action required: Review all active alarms of type vmwNsxTDataCenterEventId using the Alarms page in the NSX UI or using the NSX API GET /api/v1/alarms?status=OPEN,ACKNOWLEDGED,SUPPRESSED. For each active alarm investigate the root cause by following the recommended action for the alarm. When sufficient alarms are resolved, the alarm service will start reporting new vmwNsxTDataCenterEventId alarms again.
