Is perl-Nagios-Plugin installed? Please, run the following command and show us the output:

Code: Select all

yum list installed | grep perl-Nagios-Plugin

Did you follow the our documentation on monitoring vmware? See the "Install SDK Prerequisites" section.

[benningtonr]

it was not listed.
So i installed it again


[root@nagios tmp]# tar xzf VMware-vSphere-Perl-SDK-5.0.0-422456.i386.gz
[root@nagios tmp]# cd vmware-vsphere-cli-distrib/

[scottwilkerson]

Before, according to instructions i set proxy to be blank

If you logged out you need to do it again.

But before that, run the following

Code: Select all

yum install perl-Nagios-Plugin libuuid* perl-XML-LibXML -y

Then run the following in order

Code: Select all

export http_proxy=
export ftp_proxy=
cd /tmp/vmware-vsphere-cli-distrib/
./vmware-install.pl

[benningtonr]

ok, that seemed to work alot better, I got the following after i accepted the license:


rev10.24.08


Do you accept? (yes/no) yes

Thank you.

Did you run the following first like I said?

Code: Select all

yum install perl-Nagios-Plugin libuuid* perl-XML-LibXML -y

[benningtonr]

yes I did, i followed the instructions to the letter.

[benningtonr]

I still had the window open, i did recieve these at the end of that command, this is as far up as I could see though
