Issue/Introduction

We created a group and added all of the ms-cluster cluster members.
We created a dashboard and added the mscs cluster views.
But they all return no data.

With the individual nodes, the MSCS dashboards do not show any metrics.

The docs do not list any specific configuration needed.

 

Environment

Release : 3.7

Component : IM Reporting / Admin / Configuration

Cause

The Cluster Services - Microsoft views in dashboard layout were intended to use SNMP metrics exposed by a CA SystemEdge agent with the MSCS aim installed.

They are suppressed by default unless the metrics are available.

Resolution

The Cluster Services - Microsoft views in dashboard layout were intended to use SNMP metrics exposed by a CA SystemEdge agent with the MSCS aim installed.

They will only populate data if you have deployed SystemEdge in your environment.
