VMware UUID ESXi Standalone Popular

  • 358.png

Standalone template modified from Zabbix's "VM VMware Hypervisor" template that includes ESXI event log from Zabbix's "VM VMware" template. Modified from 3.4.7 and 3.0.15

 

Requirements

  1. Read-only ESXi user credentials
  2. ESXi server UUID#
  3. ESXi server IP address 

Zabbix config required

Edit zabbix_server.conf, update StartVMwareCollectors value to more than 0 and restart zabbix-server.  For more details, refer to https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/4.0/manual/vm_monitoring#configuration

To use 

  1. Create new Host* (preferably in host group VMware)
  2. Go to Templates
  3. Search for, select "VMware UUID ESXi Standalone" and add
  4. Go to Macros, Inherited and host Macros
  5. Click Change to modify the values for
    1. {$USERNAME} : ESXi username
    2. {$PASSWORD} : ESXi password
    3. {$URL} :  https://{ESXi-IP-Address}/sdk
    4. {$UUID} : UUID in lower case#
  6. Click Add

#Obtaining UUID

Login to your ESXi server, run esxcfg-info -u |awk '{print tolower($0)}' from SSH shell (Thanks to Travis Quinnelly)

Else

  1. Vsphere Advanced Settings, Config, Hostagent, plugins, solo, check "Config.HostAgent.plugins.solo.enableMob"
  2. Browse to https:///mob/?moid=ha-host&doPath=hardware.systemInfo
  3. Copy down value
  4. Uncheck as in step 1

*Grafana dashboard

For those using Grafana, I have uploaded dashboard to https://grafana.com/dashboards/4812. Note that your host must be in Zabbix host group VMware. 

 

Others

If template does not work, try using the official Zabbix VMware monitoring (e.g. https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/4.0/manual/vm_monitoring)
