4 votes

For the "ESX Snapshots" service, please create a service monitoring rule allowing us to set the thresholds for count and/or age of snapshots for alerting.

There is already a Rule "Virtual Machine Snapshots" where you can define age of oldest and of latest snapshot.

Was this added only in the past couple of builds? I did not see it in CRE 2.1.0p21, though it is possible I was only searching for "ESX" and not "snapshot". Don't remember.

Either way, thank you for the tip @Christian! It does address the age of snapshot threshold for us, but not the count. Count is not quite as important to us, but I can see cases where we only care about the number of snapshots and not so much the age.

Thank you for the additional consideration!
