Section 8 Monitoring VMware vSphere ESX(i)
To ensure minimal disruption to production environments, it is important to monitor
the ESX(i) server and be notified if an issue arises. To enable this functionality in
ESX servers, a vendor specific management software is loaded into the ESX Server
Console Operating System (COS). 800xA PNSM and AO communicate with the
SNMP support provided by the management software to monitor the status of the
server and notify the operator through the 800xA Alarm and Event system. The
general procedure to setup monitoring is as follows:
1. Setup the network connections.
2. Install the required vendor management software on the ESX server.
3. Import the PNSM support into the 800xA Asset Optimization server.
4. Check that there is a Soft Alarm provider in the AO Server in the Event
Collector group.
5. Create and configure the Aspect Object representing the ESX server.
800xA 5.1 Rev B supports monitoring of ESXi 5.0 Servers. For more information,
refer to Monitoring SNMP Traps in ESXi Server on page 82.
