Hari, You say that ³Virtual router does not have NIC for the management network so VR cannot send alerts directly to management server and so it should be polling process from management server to VR² But there is a way to public an alert via CS WEB API. I¹ve added this feature exactly to support the case when alert is generated by CS Service running on a diff host. Please take a look, that might work for your feature:
