check_openmanage doesn't seem to work with ESXi 5.x .  Anyway,  there is another plugin is use for this purpose:
http://www.claudiokuenzler.com/nagios-plugins/check_esxi_hardware.php

it allows me to get the same checks I was getting through open manage from ESXi hosts and it works on several different vendors hardware.  The only difficulties I've had are that the CIM service stoped working the other day and I had to restart it.

You do need to have a valid user and password to connect to the ESXi server.

Check it out though.

Subject: [Nagios-users] check_openmanage on ESXi 5.0

Hello,

I'm using nagios with the check_openmanage plugins to checks my ESX servers running on Dell PowerEdge R710.

The plugin working fine whith my ESX on version 4.1 but my problem is that I recently upgrade it on VMware ESXi 5.0.0 Update 2 and then check_openmanage plugin return this error:
ERROR: (SNMP) OpenManage is not installed or is not working correctly

I install OpenManage 7.0.0 on my ESX 5.0 (I follow this steps):

Steps  to install OpenManage.
1.        Downloaded OpenManage VIB from Dell http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/g_5/DriverDetails/DriverFileFormats?DriverId=N3R0H&FileId=2773322235
2.        Uploaded VIB to ESX host and placed in /var/log/vmware/
3.        SSH to host as root
4.        ran command esxcli software vib install -d /var/log/vmware/OM-SrvAdmin-Dell-Web-6.5.0-542907.VIB-ESX50i_A02.zip
5.        After software install, I rebooted the host.

And nothing better... SNMP works and respond to standards OIDs, my check is set with the correct SNMP community name.

I have no idea of where can be the problem...


Thanks if you have a solution for my problem.
