Monitoring VMware doesn't work

[CedricD]

Hello,

We're still settung up Nagios XI and want to monitor VMware.
This is what we get:



Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks.

did you follow our documentation on monitoring vmware? In most cases this is going to be due to a dependency not being met, or the sdk not being installed properly.

We have did this now:

Code: Select all

yum erase perl-XML-SAX-Base -y
yum install perl-XML-SAX --exclude=perl-XML-SAX-Base -y
yum install perl-Nagios-Plugin libuuid* perl-XML-LibXML

Now we're getting this error: (Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing)




edit: It's vSphere 4.1 that we're using.

Please show the output of the following:

Code: Select all

ll -la /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl

Thnx for your replay.

Here is the output:

Code: Select all

[root@company ~]# ll -la /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl
-rwxrwxrwx 1 nagios nagios 82841 Oct 14 04:23 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl

Sorry for the bump. Found the solution in this topic: http://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtop ... f=6&t=9208

Code: Select all

yum install perl-Class-MethodMaker

was not installed
