VMWare Basics PropertySource (no SNMP required)

Locked

Discussion interactions are currently paused.

Problem

When we onboard ESXi hosts we use esx.user/esx.pass, we do not configure SNMP on our hosts. We found that details about the host hardware and esx were not getting populated. Checked with support and they confirmed that LM uses SNMP to pull that information.

Solution

Wrote a PropertySource which uses the ESXi API (esx.user/esx.pass must be set), to pull the information. I used an existing LM DataSource as the basis for the script.

Can this one be released from security review, please? I noticed we do get some of these in system.*, but not all and these would be nice to have available.
