Enable download of SNMP server and cacti_ESXI_5.x template in ESXI 5.5 5.1

ESXi5 is integrated with the SNMP agent and cannot install the complete SNMP service. To enable the SNMP agent, run the VMware vSphere CLI command line (the VMware vSphere CLI component must be installed ). You can use the monitoring software to query SNMP-based host information.

1: After vshpere cli is successfully installed, you can enable the vmware snmp service.

D: \ Program Files (x86) \ VMware vSphere CLI \ bin>

D: \ Program Files (x86) \ VMware vSphere CLI \ bin> vicfg-snmp.pl -- server 10.10.10.11 -- username root-password "pass word"-s // query the SNMP configuration status of the ESXi server

D: \ Program Files (x86) \ VMware vSphere CLI \ bin> vicfg-snmp.pl -- server 10.10.10.11 -- username root-password "pass word"-c public // Set snmp Contact Group name: public

D: \ Program Files (x86) \ VMware vSphere CLI \ bin> vicfg-snmp.pl -- server 10.10.10.11 -- username root -- password "pass word" -- enable // enable snmp

D: \ Program Files (x86) \ VMware vSphere CLI \ bin> vicfg-snmp.pl -- server 10.10.10.11 -- username root -- password "pass word" -- test // test whether the configuration is successful

2: Start the snmp service through vCenter or directly connect to ESXi. Everything works normally.

Enable ESXi5 firewall to allow SNMP protocol (ESXi 5.5 allows all hosts to access the snmp service by default)

Select the virtual machine ESXi5 host-configuration-security configuration file-firewall-properties-select "SNMP server"-firewall-select "allow any IP connection" or set to allow only 10.10.0/24 access.

3. Monitor ESXi 5

First install the cacti esxi 5.x host template

The template can be found at the bottom of the article (this is due to 51ctoblog restrictions, only the fixed format attachment can be uploaded, the installation package is in. Zip, *** .tar.gz)

Upload to the cacti Server, and then

(Note: If your cacti version is 0.8.7, select cacti_0.8.7_host_template_esxi_5_x.xml as the import template.

If your cacti version is 0.8.8, select ccacti_0.8.8_host_template_esxi_5_x.xml as the import template)

Tar xf unzip // decompress the compressed package cd cacte_esxi_template // enter the decompressed directory cp resource/snmp_queries/*/var/www/html/resource/snmp_queries // Copy the script to cacti script directory chown apache: apache/var/www/html/resource/snmp_queries/esxi * // change the script owner cp scripts/ss_esxi_vhosts.php/var/www/html/scripts // Copy the php script to the cacti php script directory chown apache: apache/var/www/html/scripts/ss_esxi_vhosts.php // change chmod 755/var/www/html/scripts/ss_esxi_vhosts.php of the script owner to add the script execution permission

Then you can add a monitoring host on the cacti web page. Select ESXi 5.x as the host template.
