I managed to make the VirtualMachines zenpack running.
1) install the zenpack and restart zopectl
2) Before you add a server to the class /Devices/Server/ESX you have to go to
the zProperties of that class en fill in at the zPythonClass this rule of text
Code:
ZenPacks.vmware.VirtualMachines.VMDevice
This add's the Virtual machines tab to every new device you add to
/Devices/Server/ESX
If you already have a device in the class ESX you have to move it to another
class and move it back to the ESX class.
3) add a esx server to /Devices/Server/ESX
4) Now you see the tab Virtual machines.
To make the CPU_Utilization graph work you have to make a change in the
template.
1) Navigate to you esx server and go to Virtual Machines. Click on a virutal
machine.
2) Click on the tab templates
3) Click on the VirtualMachine template
4) Click on the Data source CPU_Utilization
5) Check if the path for the check_esx2 command is set correctly, test it thru
your terminal
I get when I put
Code:
/usr/local/zenoss/zenoss/ZenPacks/ZenPacks.vmware.VirtualMachines-1.2-py2.4.egg/ZenPacks/vmware/VirtualMachines/libexec/check_esx2
this
Code:
No ESX server hostname specified with -H
This means the path is set correct.
Now the fault is in the sed command. I think that the result of the check_esx2
command wasn't correctly parsed. I found this thru the command zencommand run
--device=devicename.domain.local -v10
I saw that the check_ping command has parsed the output to
Code:
DEBUG:zen.zencommand:The result of "/usr/local/zenoss/common/libexec/check_ping
-H esx-cr01.iconos.be -w 180,100% -c 300,100% | sed -e 's# - Packet
loss#|LOSS#;s#%,##;s#ms##;s# = #=#g'" was "'PING OK|LOSS=28 RTA=1.03
|rta=1.031000ms;180.000000;300.000000;0.000000 pl=28%;100;100;0\n'"
DEBUG:zen.zencommand:Queueing event {'severity': 0, 'performanceData': 'LOSS=28
RTA=1.03 |rta=1.031000ms;180.000000;300.000000;0.000000 pl=28%;100;100;0',
'component': '', 'agent': 'zencommand', 'summary': 'PING OK', 'manager':
'localhost', 'eventKey': 'ipcheck', 'device': 'esx-cr01.iconos.be', 'message':
'PING OK', 'eventClass': '/Status/Ping'}
You see that the result is devided in vertical bars. But with the esx_check2 is
wasn't. So...
6) on the Datasource CPU_utilization you edit the command from
Code:
/usr/local/zenoss/zenoss/ZenPacks/ZenPacks.vmware.VirtualMachines-1.2-py2.4.egg/ZenPacks/vmware/VirtualMachines/libexec/check_esx2
-N -H ${dev/id} -C ${here/zSnmpCommunity} -v ${here/vmDisplayName} -l CPU -w
90 -c 95 |sed -e
's/.*CPU\susage\sis\s/cpuUtil=/;s#%##;s/on.*(/cpuSec=/;s#s##;s/average.*$$//'
TO
Code:
/usr/local/zenoss/zenoss/ZenPacks/ZenPacks.vmware.VirtualMachines-1.2-py2.4.egg/ZenPacks/vmware/VirtualMachines/libexec/check_esx2
-N -H ${dev/id} -C ${here/zSnmpCommunity} -v ${here/vmDisplayName} -l CPU -w
90 -c 95 |sed -e
's/.*CPU\susage\sis\s/|cpuUtil=/;s#%##;s/on.*(/cpuSec=/;s#s##;s/average.*//'
So delete the two $$ on the end and add a vertical bar | before cpuUtil
Now the command should be parsed correctly.
You can test this in you terminal and if you get something like
Code:
|cpuUtil=5.88 cpuSec=68
I have Zenoss Core 2.4.1 on a Ubunut 8.04.2 and installed the ZenPack:
ZenPacks.vmware.VirtualMachines-1.2-py2.4.egg
Sorry for my bad English. If you have a question I'm glad to help you.
