Nagios Support Forum

Hi:

I have this problem, I have reinstalled the Vmware Perl SDK several times with the same result:

Configuration Wizard: VMware - Step 1

Error: It appears as though you have not installed the VMware SDK or ESX plugins on your Nagios XI server. You must have these components properly installed on your system before using this wizard.

To complete the installation of the required components please follow the Monitoring VMware with Nagios XI documentation.

I have the following environment:
