I’m having a bit of trouble with this one;
In vCenter we have a read-only account, let’s say ‘LMMonitor@vsphere.local’
In ESX hosts we have a read-only account, let’s say ‘LMMonitor’ (no @vsphere.local suffix)
LM is getting confused by which account to use for each resource type. As for properties we have:
esx.user / esx.pass
vcenter.user / vcenter.pass / vcenter.hostname
However, LM appears to prefer esx.* properties and ignores vcenter.* ones. I’m seeing this behaviour:
when esx.user is set to ‘LMMonitor’, ESX host dashboards show properly, but vCenter dashboards show NaN for most things
when esx.user is set to ‘LMMonitor@vsphere.local’, ESX host dashboards now show NaN, but vCenter dashboards show properly
This is despite having vcenter.* properties in addition, e.g. this combo works okay for ESX dashboards but not for vCenter dashboards
esx.user = ‘LMMonitor’
vcenter.user = ‘LMMonitor@vsphere.local’
and this combo works okay for vCenter dashboards but not for ESX dashboards
esx.user = ‘LMMonitor@vsphere.local’
vcenter.user = ‘LMMonitor@vsphere.local’
These properties are set at the resources parent group level.
