VMAN: Missing Hardware details on node

Hi,

I have a number of ESX servers running on DELL or part of UCS chassis that are not reporting Hardware details through the vCenter. I can see that other ESX in the same vCenter report those metrics appropriately.

Does anybody know what causes this behavior and how to get the information needed?

Thank you

The simplest check is to make sure that they are monitored as VNodes - in other words that VMAN/VIM knows it should be getting data via vcenter. You want them set to Poll via Vcenter.

Learn More about VMAN polling and pollers this has the section on changing polling.

Those are ESX server which are being monitored via VMAN from their vCenter and via ICMP for packet loss. So, they are available in the Virtualization section of my Orion server, however some of them are missing hardware details info that should be fetched by VMAN.
