I originall posted this in the wrong place. Please forgive the double posting.
I can run the esx_healthcheck from the command line and get all the information.
When I try to run it from cron, some of the information is no longer found. I have played with the path variable (putting it in the conf file)
but this doesnt seem to work.
The missing information is typically Product, vendor and cpu info.
I found the problem. The path to the esxbinaries are not in the PATH variable.
I added PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin to the healthcheck.conf file and this seemed to address the problem.
bt default a health check create a file in /var/log.
