Hi Team,

Getting below error while configuring VMA for adding VMWARE ESXI using box293 plugin.

vi-admin@vma:~> ~/box293_check_vmware.pl --server 192.168.0.35 --check Host_OS_Name_Version
UNKNOWN: Server version unavailable at 'https://192.168.0.35:443/sdk/vimService.wsdl' at /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/VMware/VICommon.pm line 734.

ESXI version: 6.5
VMA version: 6.5

Thanks

Hi

box329 plugin is provided by a third-party and we recommend you contact that author for
support.

Although the methodology is different between box329 and what we support (url below) you may
want to check out what we recommend as prerequisites and see if there is any similarity for requirements
for a VMA machine.

You could also use the above documentation to shift to an XI host based solution instead of the box329 plugin.

Thanks
