Noop, it doesn't work for me either. And when I try to configure the test I wonder why you would like to test if a machine is up on a specific host. If you use ESX, you most likely have HA and you don't care on which host a machine is running. To test if a machine is up and running, use ping and diskspace checks instead. Or am I missing something??

From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 28, 2008 3:41 PM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: [SA-list] VMWare check Hi, I'm trying the new VMWare check, but I'm having difficulty connecting. I'm using ESX. What I'm trying to do initially is bring up the list of virtual machines to choose from, from within the check configuration screen. If I point to the ESX host server itself, I get this error: Invalid arguments: Login failed. If I point to VirtualCenter server, I get this: Network failure: Cannot connect to host [our servername]: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it Which should I be pointing to? Why isn't it working?
