Hello. I have a question on monitoring for my ESXi hosts on Solarwinds. Details for solarwinds as follows:
NPM: 12.2
SAM: 6.5
I have port 161 open for SNMP polling only from Solarwinds to ESXi due to strict security requirements.
Current configuration done is I am able to see the nodes status of the ESXi and the VMs.
What I would like to configure is to monitor the physical components of the ESXi hosts. I am currently using Fujitsu servers with custom image. I would like to know if I should be using CIM or SNMP/OID to poll the ESXi, or should I send snmp traps to Solarwinds?
