Resolution

For the initial release of Diagnostics for VMware Cloud Foundation we are releasing a subset of the Skyline Advisor Property based findings and a subset of the Skyline Health Diagnostics log based findings. We chose these findings based on how frequent these issues are seen in Global Support, issues discovered after reviewing customer escalations, high priority VMSAs, and issues which are very impactful to customer’s environments.

Please note: In Diagnostics for VMware Cloud Foundation found in Operations 8.18 the Property based findings are only Product Patch based findings. We are planning to add configuration based findings in a future release.
