ESX level events
| Name | Id | Type | Description |
| Event Type | eventType | string | Event type set to PH_DEV_MON_SYS_PING_STAT |
| Event
Severity |
eventSeverity | uint16 | Set to 1. In general, a number between 0 (lowest severity) and 10 (highest severity) |
| Event
Severity Category |
eventSeverityCat | string | Set to Low. IN general, takes the values Low, Medium and High. Event Severities 0-4 are mapped to Low, 5-8 are mapped to Medium and 9-10 are mapped to High |
| Event
Receive Time |
phRecvTime | Date | Time at which AccelOps generated this event |
| Reporting
IP |
reptDevIpAddr | Date | IP address of device reporting this event. In this case set to the device reporting the utilization (same as Host name attribute) |
| Relaying IP | relayDevIpAddr | Date | IP address of device relaying this event from the source to AccelOps. In general it could be a syslog-ng IP address but in this, since AccelOps talks to the device directly, Relaying IP is set to AccelOps IP Address. |
| Raw Event
Log |
rawEventMsg | string | Raw event containing all attributes in comma separated “[Attribute] = value” format. |
| VM Name | vmName | ||
| Host name | hostName | string | Host name (as in AccelOps CMDB) of the device whose CPU utilization is being reported |
| Host IP
Address |
hostIpAddr | IP | Access IP (as in AccelOps CMDB) of the device whose CPU utilization is being reported |
