Blue Icons in vCOPS
When ever we delete/de-commission a VM/Resource from the vCenter Server, we need to remove those resource from vCOPS otherwise, there will be a blue icon with a question mark. I wish, it could have updated automatically. But as of vCOPS 5.3 we don’t have that option. If anyone knows a better way, please let me know about it.
To remove the resource, we need to go to
1. Custom UI i.e https://ip_address_of_vcOPS/Custom
2. Click on the Environment Tab
3. Click on “Recently Added Resources”
4. Select the resources by number of Days – I prefer to go with last 30 days
5. Sort via “Health” column
6. Select all the resources, which have blue icon
7. And click on Delete Resources.
