check_esx

This plugin will work with both Nagios and MRTG. It takes various arguments, so that you can pull out global information or per-VM information. Note that the VMWare SNMP daemon can support reporting on load average and filesystem space - so adding these lines: load 10 10 10 disk / to your /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf will allow these to be reported. This includes example templates for Nagios and MRTG. Use the -h flag to the check_esx plugin for usage syntax. Now also includes vmware_monitor.pl, a utility to run every 5 mins which works with RRDTool to gather data, and dynamically reconfigures MRTG config files which can be passed to any MRTG display utility. Updated to v2.2 to fix a few bugs. Version 2.4 supports ESX 3.x (I think) as well as 2.x Version 3.0alpha properly supports ESX 3.x (where x<5) but is still in testing. This also includes check_vcpu and check_vmem plugins to run under NRPE on Linux and Windows to use new vmware_tools API to check virtual CPU and Memory usage from within the guest. Although this version has passed all testing so far it should not be considered a full release candidate. Version 3.0 developed with the help of Groundwork OpenSource. Thanks guys! Note that ESX3.5 has a lot of problems with this now. A major rewrite is planned.
