NSX Manager Node Status and Health Score in VCF Operations 9.0

If you're running VCF Operations 9.0 or 9.0.x and collecting data from NSX Manager/s, you might have come across this two Metrics:

Specifically, NSX Manager Node Health Score and Node Status. I couldn't find either of them in the documentation (I've submitted feedback asking for updates), so I dug into them a bit and here are the details.

NSX Manager Node Status is being pulled directly from NSX Manager, it is capturing this Status.

The NSX Manager Status options are: Up, Degraded, Unknown, and Down. Within VCF Operations we are also assigning a Node Health Score based on this Status, which we do as follows:

• Node Status = Up | Node Health Score = 0

• Node Status = Degraded | Node Health Score = 25

• Node Status = Down | Node Health Score = 50

• Node Status = Unknown | Node Health Score = 100

Hope this was helpful, enjoy!
