Esxi 5 monitoring sensor

Votes:

0

Monitoring VMware ESX(i) servers is no problem with the VMware Host Server (SOAP) sensor, however the new version ESXi 5 i can't monitor with this sensor.

As VMware uses a new type of OS instead of the previous linux based OS, my guess is that PRTG should create a new type of sensor. Any comments / info on that?

Regards,

esxi-5 sensor vmware

A new sensor that will allow to monitor ESXi 5 is currently under development and should be available relatively soon. Please bear with us.

Is there an ETA yet for when ESXi 5 will be supported? We are in the process of upgrading all of our hosts and this is a show-stopper for us.
