Support For Vmware ESXI 6.7 Monitoring through Centreon 22.04

Did you activate or configure vmware connector ?

Centreon VMWare Connector

For the VMWare monitoring, Centreon use daemon to connect and request the Vcenter.

Install this daemon on each needed poller:

yum install centreon-plugin-Virtualization-VMWare-daemon

 

To configure the access to your infrastructure, edit the "/etc/centreon/centreon_vmware.pm" configuration file:

%centreon_vmware_config = (
    vsphere_server => {
        default => {
            url => 'https://<ip_hostname>/sdk',
            username => '<username>',
            password => '<password>'
        }
    }
);

1;

 

Make sure to replace variables with needed information:

• ip_hostname: IP address or hostname of the vCenter or ESX (if standalone),
• username: username with at least "read only" access to the vCenter or ESX (you can use domain user),
• password: password of the username.

You can configure multiple vCenter or ESXi connections using this structure:

%centreon_vmware_config = (
    vsphere_server => {
        'my_first_vcenter' => {
            url => 'https://<ip_hostname>/sdk',
            username => '<username>',
            password => '<password>'
        },
        'my_other_vcenter' => {
            url => 'https://<ip_hostname>/sdk',
            username => '<DOMAIN>\<username>',
            password => '<password>'
        },
    },
    port => 5700
);

1;

 

Each entry is called a container.

That’s the same , in place of vcenter write your esxi IP_HOSTNAME .

You dont need a vcenter to use VMWARE connector .

it seems that issue is from  EXSI side, can you share me a link or documentation for exsi 6.7 configurations. I will compare with my actual configs. 

Hi @sdouce  ! Well received ! Thanks.

Hello,

What is the purpose of the "overall status" check on the standalone esx.

Because from my side I have the same error.
To solve this I had to remove all the checks with the option "overall status" as on the picture.

How did you get this to work with?

Thanks in advance,
