We've been discussing Aria Operations Diagnostics since it was introduced in 8.18, here are my previous posts.
Overall Findings and Security Advisories give us visibility into VMSAs and CVEs (and more)
Clicking VIEW DETAILS in Overall Findings will show you the details.
While this is great, I'd like to export these Findings, which isn't doable today. I'm hearing this will be available in VCF Operations 9, but what do I do until then?
APIs! Specifically, the Internal API surface in this case, which you access via the https://operations_fqdn_or_api/suite-api.
Once authenticated you can explore the GET /internal/events endpoint.
It has several available Parameters, we'll use diagnosticSubType of HEALTH and type of DIAGNOSTIC to see our Diagnostic events as shown above. Click Execute to generate your Response Body.
If you scroll down in the Response Body you'll see your Diagnostics Findings, the first one looks like this.
Which corresponds to the first Finding in the UI.
Looking at the second event in the Response Body looks like this.
Which corresponds to the second Finding in the UI.
And so on...while not clean and easy from the UI, it does give us the ability to export Diagnostics Findings while we wait for VCF Operations 9.
I referenced this in the previous blogs, but it's important enough to highlight it here again: here is the list of findings in Operations 8.18.2.
