I haven't played with this in particular (or even very much with xymon
in general)  but I think you probably need the perl API stuff from
vmware on your monitor host; you shouldn't need anything on your ESXi
hosts; trying to install things there that don't come from vmware is
likely to cause you much pain and problems.
