The service configuration does not look correct at all. It should look similar to the following example.

Code: Select all

define service {
    host_name                192.168.1.1
    service_description      Ubuntu CPU Usage
    use                      xiwizard_generic_service
    check_command            check_esx3_guest!/usr/local/nagiosxi/etc/components/vmware/192_168_7_20_auth.txt!Ubuntu-16.04 LTS!CPU!!
    max_check_attempts       5
    check_interval           5
    retry_interval           1
    check_period             xi_timeperiod_24x7
    notification_interval    60
    notification_period      xi_timeperiod_24x7
    notifications_enabled    0
    contacts                 nagiosadmin
    _xiwizard                vmware
    register                 1
}

If what you posted is in the service config file, you should delete that service and re-run the Wizard so it can recreate that configuration.

I will review the configuration with the support team and get back.

Thanks for the example / feedback.
