I appreciate the gesture - but given that nearly all of the management packs that were actually of value have been axed, the 'pack builder' container needs every available feature you can give it.
There's only so much 'taking away' that can be done before all that is left is a shelfware product.
Once upon a time VMware used to sit down and talk to their partners and customers about the future of their product lines in an effort to improve things that would be used for customers, by customers...(VMware Design Partnership Program)...things of late just seem quite uni-directional.

Hi @Marc Bunyan, The ability to create direct mappings between events and alerts was not included in VCF 9.0 due to VCF Operations having more robust means of creating alerts from events. There are no plans to re-introduce this, however, I'll bring this to the team to discuss the possibility.

The 'new' pack builder bundled with the VCF Ops appliance has lost the ability to create Alarms from the polled events - Are there any plans to re-introduce this in a later build?
