VM Incidents

The IaaS Portal tracks incidents associated with each VM. Incidents are automatically created when a VM operation fails, times out, or encounters an infrastructure error. The VM Incidents page shows all incidents recorded against a specific VM, regardless of the operation that caused them.

To view incidents for a VM, log into the IaaS Portal at itportal.netapp.com and navigate to IaaS --> VM Management. Find your VM in the list, click on it to open the VM detail page, then click the Incidents button in the top-right area of the page.


Incidents table

The page displays a table of all incidents linked to the VM, sorted by creation time. The total incident count is shown in the table footer.
