vSAN monitoring and management
vCenter is the primary interface for monitoring and managing vSAN. From the vSphere web
client, you can view the configuration and status of:
 Cluster hosts and storage devices
 Cluster and node capacity and consumption
 Datastore capacity
 Deduplication and compression efficiency
 Virtual disk status
 Physical device status
 vSAN cluster health
Running vSAN health checks
vSAN health checks allow you to assess the status of cluster components, diagnose issues, and
troubleshoot problems. The health checks cover hardware compatibility, network configuration
and operation, advanced vSAN configuration options, storage device health, and VM objects.
Health checks can be configured to run at specified intervals.
The figure below is an example of VSAN health check results.
