I ran the command below and used the IP address for the VCenter server.
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl -D 192.168.1.20 -u username -p password -l runtime -s listhost
And this is the results.
Code: Select all
CHECK_ESX3.PL OK - 3/3 Hosts up: 192.168.1.1(UP), 192.168.1.2(UP), 192.168.1.3(UP) | hostcount=3units;;
The plugin I am using might be a newer version than you are using so you could update to the same version that I used.
Here is the link to it.

When you run the command, you should use the IP address for your VCenter server.
Make sure you installed the VMWare perl SDK that is compatible with your VMWare hosts and check the log files on the VMWare servers for any errors that could help
