Xymon Monitor for Vmware ESXi
Looks like someone's working on an open VMware ESXi monitor: http://xymonesxi.sourceforge.net/
anyone else playing with this?
Looks like everyone just since you shared it!

I've got the scripts up and running on my install, took a fair bit of tweaking as the scripts had quite a few items that were hardcoded:
- Had to add "$ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} = 0;" to stop LWP trying to validate the self-signed cert
- Had to remove the sudo command, it doesn't run without a TTY and not sure why this is in there as resxtop doesn't need to be root to run
- Corrected the BB commands to use the $HOST variable instead of the hardcoded 'hobbit' servername
- Had to convert the line endings to Unix - thats probably caused by using rar format? use tar.gz instead (rar is only ever really used for sharing illegal files)
It seems to work OK as a starting basis, abit too much hardcoded for my liking but each to their own.
Nice effort :)

Hi all.
I hope you find this monitoring script useful. My college and I cooked it up tailored to our environment but later decided to share it with the rest of the world in hope to receive some feedback, ideas and patches. I know there is a lot of room for improvement and our goal is to improve the script with help from you guys.
Remember: sharing is caring
- so please share your thoughts or patches.
Regards, Svenni

Thanks Svenni,
I'll diff my files compared to your original at some point over the next couple of days and send you the diffs.
