Shawn Hartsock 15f7be9a52 pyVmomi reStructured Text Documentation
This external documentation for pyVmomi was generated using Googly Docs
(aka Google Standard Documentation) which renders very cleanly in
GitHub. Internal documentation for a class should be done in Sphinx
format because tools like pyCharm and Eclipse can use that documentation
as a hint for code completion.

Note: External docs as Googly Docs, internal docs as Sphinx.

vim.alarm.AlarmState

Information about the alarm's state.

extends

vmodl.DynamicData

Attributes:

key (str):

Unique key that identifies the alarm.

entity (vim.ManagedEntity):

Entity on which the alarm is instantiated.

alarm (vim.alarm.Alarm):

Alarm object from which the AlarmState object is instantiated.

overallStatus (vim.ManagedEntity.Status):

Overall status of the alarm object. This is the value of the alarm's top-level expression. In releases after vSphere API 5.0, vSphere Servers might not generate property collector update notifications for this property. To obtain the latest value of the property, you can use PropertyCollector methods RetrievePropertiesEx or WaitForUpdatesEx. If you use the PropertyCollector.WaitForUpdatesEx method, specify an empty string for the version parameter. Since this property is on a DataObject, an update returned by WaitForUpdatesEx may contain values for this property when some other property on the DataObject changes. If this update is a result of a call to WaitForUpdatesEx with a non-empty version parameter, the value for this property may not be current.

time (datetime):

Time the alarm triggered.

acknowledged (bool, optional):

Flag to indicate if the alarm's actions have been acknowledged for the associated ManagedEntity.

acknowledgedByUser (str, optional):

The user who acknowledged this triggering. If the triggering has not been acknowledged, then the value is not valid.

acknowledgedTime (datetime, optional):

The time this triggering was acknowledged. If the triggering has not been acknowledged, then the value is not valid.
