Discovery Data Submission Failure

Microsoft.SystemCenter.DiscoveryWriteActionModule.AgentProxyingNotEnabled.Alert (Rule)

This rule generates alerts when agent proxying needs to be enabled for a Health service to submit discovery data about other computers.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This alert indicates that a health service attempted to discover an object on behalf of another computer. This is sometimes required for proper monitoring. For example if you have COMPUTER1 and COMPUTER2 which are both physical nodes of CLUSTER1, the agent on COMPUTER1 will not be able to send discovered objects about CLUSTER1 until proxying is enabled.

Causes

It may be completely valid for a computer to discover objects for another computer. You must review the source computer to determine if it should be configured with proxying.

Resolutions

If you have reviewed that the computer should be able to discover and send operational data on behalf of another computer, you should enable proxying for that computer:
