Next steps
After Proactive HA is enabled on a cluster, OMIVV initializes Proactive HA health and redundancy status and reports them to
vCenter. Based on the health update notification from OMIVV, the vCenter server performs the manual or automatic action that
you have selected for remediation.
The host is moved to maintenance mode after receiving critical event. After remediation and receiving health event associated
to that host, the hosts will not come out of maintenance mode automatically even if the action is set to Automated in the
Failures & Responses section. Manually move the host out of maintenance mode.
To override the existing severity, see Override severity of health update notification on page 96.
All the customization that is done on the registered Dell health update provider for PHA cluster will be restored to default after
RPM upgrade and backup and restore operation.
Override severity of health update notification
About this task
You can configure to override the existing severity of the Dell Proactive HA events for the Dell EMC host and its components
with customized severity, which is aligned to your environment.
The following are the severity levels that apply to each of the Proactive HA events:
● Info
● Moderately Degraded
● Severely Degraded
NOTE: You cannot customize the severity of the Proactive HA components with the Info severity level.
Steps
1. In OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter, click Settings > Override Severity for Proactive HA.
The data grid displays all the supported Proactive HA events. The data grid columns include columns such as events id,
event description, component type, default severity, and override severity column for customizing the severity of the host
and its components.
2. To change severity of a host or its component, in the Override Severity column, select the required status from the
drop-down list.
This policy applies to all the Proactive HA hosts across all vCenter servers that are registered with OMIVV.
3. Repeat step 2 for all the events that must be customized.
4. Perform any one of the following actions:
a. To save the customization, click APPLY.
b. To cancel the override severity settings, click CANCEL.
To reset the override severity settings to default, click RESET TO DEFAULT.
