Observability options using Red Hat OpenShift with VMware vSphere concepts
When your infrastructure is finally up and running with a new tool, it’s time to keep it running smoothly. In this resource we will learn how to access common observability features in Red Hat® OpenShift®, and what each of the Red Hat® OpenShift® Virtualization observability menu options mean for VMware vSphere admins.
What will you learn?
- How OpenShift menu and features map to ones you may know from VMware
What do you need before starting?
- VMware vSphere 8.0 or higher (as referenced in this path)
- Red Hat OpenShift (as referenced in this path)
Observability feature mapping chart
This section addresses commonly used observability features in VMware and how they map to deploying, managing, and maintaining virtual machines in OpenShift.
Notification/Alarm on Triggers
Custom alarm provides rules definition on events, condition or state triggers, severity levels can be setOpenShift Observability provides rules definition. Severity levels can be set and have discrete actions for each level.
Menu mapping chart
This section addresses what the OpenShift Virtualization observability menu selection items mean from a VMware vSphere perspective.
