mibs for vmware

Question

i haven't downloaded any mib's in awhile - so i appologize if they are there, but.. does anybody know if i can get mib's for monitoring vmware products?  i'm running the EE version, and i can't get anything to report for the 'vmware interfaces' of my devices.
thanks..

Whatever is needed, typically memory and CPU. Real memory is the physical amount of memory you have installed.

I believe only ESX has direct MIBS (.1.3.6.1.4.1.6876). I monitor the host machine and the vm's directly. I don't think you can monitor the VM virtual interfaces directly on the host.

Which parameters do you monitor for the host?  And do you know what "real memory" is?
