Veeam VMware: Virtual SAN Health Alarm 'Memory pools (heaps)'

Veeam.Virt.Extensions.VMware.VSAN.VMCCR.VirtualSANHealthAlarmMemorypoolsheaps (UnitMonitor)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This monitor tracks the Virtual SAN Health Alarm 'Memory pools (heaps)'.

Causes

The purpose of the Memory pools (heaps) check is to ensure that memory heaps used by Virtual SAN are not running low. If the check fails, this means that the heaps required for the operation of physical disks are running low, and the vSAN cluster is most likely experiencing high load.

For more information on the Physical Disk Health - Memory pools (heaps) check, see this VMware KB article.

Resolutions

To troubleshoot the check failure, VMware recommends that you contact VMware Support.

For more information on troubleshooting Virtual SAN issues, see VMware Docs.
