Great plugin!!!

I can set up all the tests I need for my vCenter server, physical hosts and VM’s. Awesome job.

CHECK_ESX3.PL CRITICAL – Server version unavailable at ‘https://…

This was due to the nature of the ESXi SSL certificate. I disabled SSL by adding the following near the top of my check_esx3.pl script, around line 32 or so:

$ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} = 0;

Now it works great!!!
