[dalbjerg]

Hello

I have setting up a lot of Dell's servers to forward SNMP Traps to our Nimbus Monitoring server, i haved create this guide:

http://kennethdalbjerg.dk/2010/04/27/vmware-esxi-4-0-and-dell-openmanage-snmp-traps

All our servers is licensed.

But now i have a customer how have a free ESXI 5, and using HP Hardware.

I have downloaded a package name hp-esxi5.0uX-bundle-1.1.2-4, is this the correct package?

Is it posible to send SNMP traps from a free ESXi version? I have read somewhere that this is not posible?

Davs/ Hi Kenneth..

You're right. ESXi has to be licensed for it being able to send SNMP traps.

You might have read it in the "VMware ESXi/ESX 4.1 and ESXi 5.0 Comparison" chart here: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2005377

Regarding the package, it seems just right to me..

God fornøjelse 🙂
