Prerequisites: I ran into a lot of issues trying to get this plugin to work on my Nagios RedHat 4_Update6 host. Such as…. I received errors when using an old version of CPAN to download, build and install Perl modules required by the check_esx3.pl plugin. To resolve this I upgraded Nagios server to Redhat 5_Update 6 and also received a few awesome suggestions from the Nagiosplug-help communities. Using the advice I was given I then took the following steps: - Downloaded check_esx3.pl from Nagios Plugin Exchange - As per check_esx.txt, I downloaded and installed “VMware-vSphere-Perl-SDK-4.1.0-254719.i386.tar.gz “ - I then ran the ./check_esx3.pl script and received the error: Can't locate Nagios/Plugin.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 .) at ./check_esx3.pl line 31.
