Hi and thanks Edgar,
 
A best practice document what I was asking for. However this is exactly what we 
have setup in our lab. The "Future Solution" mntioned at page 5 describe a no 
need for snmp on the ESX machines. What I just wan't to ensure is that hardware 
monitoring (fault memory/disks/environment) of the ESX hosts also are 
monitored. I can understand that all vmware stuff is handled, but what about 
the hardware?
 
Can anyone ankowledge that the ESX hardware is monitored even without using 
SNMP towards the ESX host directly?

Hello Robert, attached you will find a document called "Best Practices: 
Modeling Virtual Environments in SPECTRUM", in this document is portrayed what 
is the best way to model virtual environments and how this is reflected and 
handled in Spectrum.

Hope it helps, 

Best Regards,

        I would like to hear the best practise on how to monitor VMWare 
environments with Spectrum. VPM models object nicely into spectrum. I've tried 
that - very nice. But howabout hardware alarms? The ESX4 servers have their own 
snmp agents, should they trap to Spectrum or to vCenter (Who forward to 
Spectrum using VPM).

        Etc, maybe there are more things to take notice about. Anyone digged 
into this?
