We have been using check_openmanage (brilliant piece of work!) to check the hardware status of our Dell machines, lately we are moving from ESX 4 to ESXi 5 and found that the check_openmanage check could not help us with the monitoring of ESXi 5 hardware, because check_openmanage needs OMSA for its checks. Today I found a other plugin to check ESXi hardware, see <a href="http://www.claudiokuenzler.com/nagios-plugins/check_esxi_hardware.php" target="_blank">http://www.claudiokuenzler.com/nagios-plugins/check_esxi_hardware.php</a> There is one disadvantage to this plugin and that is that you always get the same status details back with a OK. I don’t know if it is possible but it would be nice to have the checks from the check_esxi_hardware available in the check_openmanage, only problem is one is written in Python the other in Perl… I hope it helps and that maybe someone (Trond the author of check_openmanage?) can create one check of this.
