Table 3‑39. Health Config Tab Settings
Mode setting Description
None Default. No health checks are configured.
HTTP If you select HTTP, you must provide an API to access and an
HTTP method and version to use . The API is relative and you
do not need to enter the address of the container. You can also
specify a timeout period for the operation and set health
thresholds.
For example, a healthy threshold of 2 means that two
consecutive successful calls must occur for the container to be
considered healthy and in the RUNNING status. An unhealthy
threshold of 2 means that two unsuccessful calls must occur for
the container to be considered unhealthy and in the ERROR
status. For all the states in between the healthy and unhealthy
thresholds, the container status is DEGRADED.
TCP connection If you select TCP connection, you must only enter a port for the
container. The health check attempts to establish a TCP
connection with the container on the provided port. You can also
specify a timeout value for the operation and set healthy or
unhealthy thresholds as with HTTP.
Command If you select Command, you must enter a command to be
executed on the container. The success of the health check is
determined by the exit status of the command.
Ignore health check on provision Uncheck this option to force health check on provision. By
forcing it, a container is not considered provisioned until one
successful health check passes.
Autodeploy Automatic redeployment of containers when they are in ERROR
state.
Log Config Tab
Specify a logging mode, and optional logging options, for the blueprint container component in the design
canvas.

Using Container Properties and Property Groups in a Blueprint
You can add predefined property groups to a containers component in a vRealize Automation blueprint.
When machines are provisioned by using a blueprint that contain these properties, the provisioned
machine is registered as a Docker Container host machine.
