vSphere module

beta[]

The vSphere module uses the Govmomi library to collect metrics from any Vmware SDK URL (ESXi/VCenter). This library is built for and tested against ESXi and vCenter 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5.

By default it enables the metricsets datastore, host and virtualmachine.

Example configuration

The vSphere module supports the standard configuration options that are described in [configuration-metricbeat]. Here is an example configuration:

metricbeat.modules:
- module: vsphere
  enabled: true
  metricsets: ["datastore", "host", "virtualmachine"]
  period: 10s
  hosts: ["https://localhost/sdk"]

  username: "user"
  password: "password"

  insecure: false
  # Get custom fields when using virtualmachine metric set. Default false.
  # get_custom_fields: false

Metricsets

The following metricsets are available:
