Nagios Support Forum

HI,

Is there a netapp monitoring wizard i can download or suggest alternative solution if no monitoring wizards available? I have downloaded the netapp plugins from nagios-exchange site. But i am not sure if there is a way to integrate it into nagios web UI.

thanks,

I am having trouble as well monitoring ESX vsphere hosts. i am getting this error in service detail "ESX3 CRITICAL - Error: Permission to perform this operation was denied."

here is the output

ESX3 CRITICAL - Error: Permission to perform this operation was denied.

THANKS, i was able to install SDK successfully by manually going into CPAN and running the command from there and installing each missing module and re-run vmware-install.pl command again.

ESX3 CRITICAL - Error: Permission to perform this operation was denied.

Thanks, the username and password was on the same line and i put the password on the next line and i still get the same error message.
