After the Management Pack for Horizon for VMware Aria Operations (formerly known as vRealize Operations) adapter was down, and successfully brought back up, you continue to receive false positive alerts stating that "Objects are not receiving data from adapter instance"
This procedure will disable the "Objects are not receiving data from adapter instance" alert for Management Pack for Horizon adapter instances.Note: If the adapter instance is failing to collect data whatsoever due to a functional failure, VMware Aria Operations (formerly known as vRealize Operations) will generate the "Adapter Instance Down" alert with higher priority. Thus, the 'Objects are not receiving data from adapter instance' alert is not of interest or use at that point.
This is a known issue affecting VMware Aria Operations 8.x, there is no resolution at this time. Please subscribe to this article to be informed when updates are published.
