Why each option
vSphere HA Application Monitoring requires VMware Tools for OS-level heartbeats and the vSphere Guest SDK to enable applications to send their own heartbeats.
VMware Tools must be installed because it provides the in-guest heartbeat channel that vSphere HA monitors to detect guest OS unresponsiveness.
The vSphere Guest SDK must be installed so that applications running inside the guest can programmatically send application-level heartbeats through VMware Tools to the HA subsystem, enabling failure detection beyond just the OS level.
vSphere HA Application Monitoring is a native vSphere capability and has no dependency on vRealize Operations or any external management product.
Application Monitoring is not restricted to Linux - it is supported on both Linux and Windows guest operating systems.
Application Monitoring is not restricted to Windows - it is supported on both Windows and Linux guest operating systems.
