This monitor tracks the PSC Service Health Alarm.
This alarm will fire in vCenter, using triggers defined via the vSphere Client.
By default, this alarm is triggered by the following events:
vCenter Event | Component | Alarm Status | Description |
vim.event.HealthStatusChangedEvent | pschealth | alarm_status(green) | Health status of the PSC Service changed to GREEN. |
vim.event.HealthStatusChangedEvent | pschealth | alarm_status(yellow) | Health status of the PSC Service changed to YELLOW. |
vim.event.HealthStatusChangedEvent | pschealth | alarm_status(red) | Health status of the PSC Service changed to RED. |
The PSC Service (Platform Services Controller Service) is responsible for providing the vSphere environment with the core infrastructure services described in VMware Docs. To learn how to troubleshoot PSC Service issues, see VMware Docs.
