Small world...
We use bbclt on the ESX host - along with some externals to monitor the actual hardware (i.e. OpenManage & RAID, etc.). We are also implementing the following custom EXTs for our ESX hosts (will be posted to DeadCat once complete):
- a modified "vdf" to output the vmfs information to a vmdisk column
- parse "vmware-cmd -l", "vmware-cmd VMNAME getstate", and "vmware-cmd VMNAME getheartbeat" to provide a vmrun column
- a modified "du -h" to output the snapshot & vm file sizes & usage to a vmfile column
We are also working on SNMP, but prefer using an EXT where possible.
We use BBWIN on our Windows guests and BBCLT on the non-Windows guests with every EXT that we can lay our hands on or custom develop.
