VMware : adding new vcenter

jledig · September 27

Hello,

I don't know if it's me but I'm not able to find the place where to upload the perl SDK.

In Xormon NG doc, it is stated this :

but when I go there, I only have Add New Device :

I'm not seeing where I can upload the Perl SDK ...

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks

Hi Pavel,

thanks for your quick reply.

But I have an issue with adding vcenter :

Is it because it's vCenter 8 ? I didn't find any version related information in the doc ...

Thanks

it is not about vCenter version.

looks like a network problem, connection to the vcenter is filtered on a firewall, contact your security department ... and open:

Xormon NG --> vcenter:443 TCP

So, just to be clear :

xormon ng and vcenter are in the same subnet, as for the lpar2rrd instance

this vcenter is already registered in lpar2rrd instance and working :

but with xormon NG, it is not working :

from xormon NG host:

telnet <vcenter name> 443

I've found the issue, it's DNS related :

I've tried with ip and it's working.

I've checked /etc/network/interfaces and DNS name-servers is ok, but when I do nslookup, the DNS ip is wrong ...

Edit : I've changed nameserver in resolv.conf and it is now working, sorry for the trouble.
