Nagios - Monitoring ESX servers

[stauftm]

Hi all, I am new to Nagios and we are looking to purchasing this as our network monitoring system. I am monitoring about 30 servers but I'm having issues monitoring ESXi hosts

When I attempt to run the VmWare ESX wizard it tells me I need to follow some directions before I can run this wizard, below is the link.

I follow the pdf instructions but I'm getting an error at the './vmware-install.pl EULA_AGREED=yes --default' command. Below is my error:

I've tried numerous troubleshooting ideas but no luck. I'm hoping someone can help me out!

Thanks,

Hello, @stauftm. We've had a few issues with the latest vSphere SDK 6.7. Please download the version 6.5 instead.
