Nagios Support Forum

I am also not able to get the VMWare components installed successfully. I have installed all the prerequisites and the SDK, but for some reason it still thinks something is missing. Please help. I have attached the error that I see in Nagios XI.


Here is the message from the SDK installer, but we have Socket6 0.28 installed.

This installer has successfully installed both vSphere CLI and the vSphere SDK
for Perl.

The following Perl modules were found on the system but may be too old to work
with vSphere CLI:

Socket6 0.23 or newer

Enjoy,

--the VMware team

@jjroncag, Can you run this plugin locally from the Nagios server and let me know what errors you're getting in the console.

I found a forum post that suggested to install the Nagios plugin Perl module and that fixed it.
 
                https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewto ... dk#p239337
  
Ran the version check on the module and received this error:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl --version
Can't locate Nagios/Plugin/Functions.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl line 40.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl line 40.
 
Installed the Perl module:
                yum install perl-Nagios-Plugin -y

Re-ran the version check and no errors received:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl --version
check_esx3.pl 0.7.1

@ jjroncag, Yep, that's what I was going to suggest in my next post. Seems like the issue is resolved. Is it ok to lock this thread?

Yes, thread can be locked. Thank you.
