ESXi Reboot Check

I was surprised to find none of the builtin datasources includes an uptime datapoint.  I want to extend this to more detail from the same API class (HostRuntimeInfo), but for now it gets the bootTime property and transmogrifies to seconds elapsed. KE649L.

 

  • Hey mnagel, the Uptime metric (as well as the rebootNeeded, maintenanceMode and other state) has been added to a latest version of the VMware datasources under review now. Here are the locators for the relevant beta datasources. ELAK96, KFD4F7

    Nice!  I wish I had known that yesterday, but then I would not have had the fun of figuring out how to convert the GregorianCalendar result for bootTime into seconds :).
