I found solution for VCSA 6.7. It is described in VMWare KB article https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/67483, where is stated, that problem is solved in 6.5u2 - this is not true, in VCSA 6.7 latest patch (Spe/2019) there is still old version of the script. More about solution here: http://www.vryan.co.uk/index.php/2018/05/09/vcsa-automated-backup-failure/
Very nice plugin, but unfortunately does not work in VCSA 6.7.
Output: One or more health checks are not green (1/8) : applmgmt (green),database-storage (n/a),load (n/a),mem (n/a),software-packages (n/a),storage (n/a),swap (n/a),system (n/a), Please visit https://......
If I try to run "https: // {server} / rest / appliance / health / mem" directly, the output is "default_message: "This method requires authentication.", but that is strange because the script authenticates.

Hello, I try to use your plugin in a FAN version of NAGIOS (core 3.4.4). But when trying to execute your script I have the followinf errors:
ImportError: No module named json
and
Unable to login to VCSA API, please check credentials and firewall.
Is my problem due that JSON is missing in FAN, if so is it possible to install that module or not, or do I have to install a new version of NAGIOS with JSON embeded ?
Thanks for the answer.
