VMware ESX Configuration

What is Discovered and Monitored

Configuration

Settings for Access Credentials

What is Discovered and Monitored
Protocol Information discovered Metrics collected Used for
VMWare

SDK

ESX Server and the Guest hosts running on that server. ESX host clusters. Hardware (CPU, Memory, Disk, network Interface) for all guests, OS vendor and version for all guests. Virtual switch for connecting guest hosts to network interfaces. Both ESX level and guest host level performance metrics. Guest host level metrics include CPU/memory/disk utilization, CPU Run/Ready/Limited percent, memory swap in/out rate, free memory state, disk read/write rate/latency, network interface utilization, errors, bytes in/out.

ESX level metrics include physical CPU utilization, ESX kernel disk read/writre latency  etc

Monitoring

VMWare

SDK

  ESX logs include scenarios like ESX level login sucess/failure, configuration change, Guest host movement, account creation and modification Availability,

Change and

Security

Monitoring

Configuration

AccelOps discovers and monitors VMware ESX servers and guests over the the VMware SDK. Make sure that VMware Tools is installed on all the guests in your ESX deployment, and AccelOps will be able to obtain their IP addresses.

About Mike

Michael Pruett, CISSP has a wide range of cyber-security and network engineering expertise. The plethora of vendors that resell hardware but have zero engineering knowledge resulting in the wrong hardware or configuration being deployed is a major pet peeve of Michael's. This site was started in an effort to spread information while providing the option of quality consulting services at a much lower price than Fortinet Professional Services.
