Hello.

Could it be possible to add some new modes for the VMWare 8 ESX connector?

  • datastore-host: we use this for getting latencies
  • service-host: we use this to check if services are up (ntp, ssh,...)
  • storage-host: we use this to check LUN and Path
  • time-host: we use this to check the time in each ESX

We are still using the 6/7 perl based checks but would like to ditch those and keep only VMWare 8 ones.

Or maybe it is already possible to get this info with VMWare 8 checks?

Regards

Hello again.


I forgot to ask also if it’s possible to add the tools-vm mode to VMWare 8 VCenter connector, to have a list of all the machines which have it installed, updated, running, etc, like with the 6/7 plugin.

There is a vm-tools mode for the VMWare 8 VM but that if for the VM specified by name or id.

Regards.
