Monitoring Windows CPU/Mem under VMWare

I have just created a couple of plugins, check_vcpu and check_vmem,
which query the vitual CPU and memory use by a guest OS under VMWare
ESX3.

 

The difference from the check_esx plugin is that these two plugins both
run in the GUEST OS.  They also work in both Linux and Windows, although
they only work with ESX3 and the newer vmware-tools.  Obviously, under
Windows, you need NRPE_NT or NC_NET in order to run the plugins.

 

Is there anyone out there who would be willing to try them out and give
me some feedback as to how well they work?  

Pick the executables up from

The linux one is better tested than the windows one.  Treat these as
alpha code: if you put them into a production environment, then you're
on your own.
