Hi Nikesh,
Please advise if xymon can monitor esx hosts and if there is a readme to this.
This question has been asked numerous times (try googling Xymon ESX).
This thread might be useful: http://lists.xymon.com/oldarchive/2010/11/msg00146.html
Regards,
Malcolm

New subject: R: ESX Hosts
Thank you for asking and reposting the discussion, I've decided to give it a try
I've got the following instructions
Super-short outline how to get your ESX-monitoring up and running with VMX:
- fetch the vMA from VMware from above url and install it.
- install a xymon-client on the vMA, rpm available from http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/rhel5/xymon/x86_64/
- install VMX on vMA (client-extension script) and on the xymon-server (for data-processing and graphing)
- easy and done
- how to install xymon-client on the vMA which has root disabled?
- ... I'm not actually able to understand what VMX is: googling " Vmware Monitor for Xmyon" or " Vmware-Monitor for Xmyon (VMX)" only finds a few pages on this mailing list archive and nothing to be downloaded and installed :(

Solved 2.: just type sudo rpm -i..... And answer with the same vi-admin password as root password.
Still missing 3...
