Hello,

Sorry for the delay, I was on vacation for the past two weeks.

2) copy file scripts/ss_esxi_vhosts.php to your_cacti_instalation/scripts/ > OK : rwxr-xr-x for root
3) copy files resource/snmp_queries to your_cacti_instalation/resource/snmp_queries/ > OK : rwxr-xr-x for root

Data Query ESXI - hw " shows only empty graphs
For example : (see picture)

Thanks for your help !

I found problem. My template for ESXi doesn't not support nothing like HW state CPU pkg/ID/Node. I guess that you install another vmware template and mixed both templates together

Thanks again for the great template though!
Yesterday I updated my ESXi (from 5.5. to 6.0) on HP Proliant and result is that Real memory disapeared. So it depends on ESXi version too, not only vendor

Replace $value[value] to $value["value"] at ss_esxi_vhosts.php solved my problem.

In my case this value were on line 33, 40 and 42

I had the same with Cacti 1.1.28, fixed the same way.

I can confirm that this template works for an ESXi 6.5.0u1.

Hi,

I'm new at cacti. :roll: I'm running Cacti 1.1.29 with this script to monitor ESXi 6.5. Works like a charm. :D

But i am not able to aggregate both CPU cores in one graph with different colours. Can anybody help me?

Hi I'm new to Cacti, and am trying to graph stats to use in a weathermap. I'm scratching my head trying to work out how to graph vmhba adapters?

Using this template, I get all my vmnic's just fine, as you can see here:

How could I get the vmhba adapters to also appear in this auto generated list? :-?

The list that you have there is for interfaces, as in network interfaces. Aren't vmhba hard drive's? If so, you need to look at the disks instead.

Point is, in the web UI of ESXI, you can view vmhba adapters in a simular view to vmnics, so can cacti get the same data? (see pics attached).
