Hi,
We just upgrade Vmware from 3.5 to ESXi 4.1 but on 4.1 SNMP isn't supported. So how do add the ESX server to NPM to be montiored like 3.5?
Thanks
David
you can install/configure snmp on esxi 4.1, I use this as a batch file on a PC with the cli installed.
@echo off
Set /p VI_USERNAME=Enter User:
Set /p VI_PASSWORD=Enter Password:
cls
Set /p CommunityString=Enter Community String:
cd /d "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\bin"
Set /p HostNameOrIP=Enter Host Name or IP:
vicfg-snmp.pl --server %HostNameOrIP% -c %CommunityString%
vicfg-snmp.pl --server %HostNameOrIP% -E
Also, you give the esxi credentials. You need at least NPM 10, but I would recommend you get all the way up to 10.2.1.
