Skyline Health alert 'vSAN cluster compliance' may be triggered on a vSAN ESA cluster when using a mix of 25Gb and 10Gb/1Gb NICs.

Products

• VMware vSAN 8.x

Issue/Introduction

Currently the vSAN Health alert 'vSAN cluster compliance' is triggered when the DVS used for the vSAN vmkernel port group has 10Gb/1Gb NICs attached.

Environment

vSAN 8.x

Cause

The current trigger for the 'vSAN cluster compliance' Skyline Health alert is when the DVS used for vSAN has 10Gb/1Gb NICs attached even if only 25Gb NICs are used as the Active / Failover NICs for the vSAN vmkernel port.

Resolution

Engineering are aware of this issue and a fix is planned for a later vSAN 8.x release.

Additional Information

Users can apply any one of the following workarounds until a fix is released:

1. Create a new DVS and migrate the 10Gb/1Gb NICs to this.
2. Set the following advanced configuration option on all hosts: esxcfg-advcfg -s 1 /VSAN/DOMNetworkSchedulerThrottleComponent
3. Silence the Health Check
