forward performance chart data to third-party solution?

[nblr06]

well, this sounds a little bit strange, i know.

does anyone know whether there's any methods to sent the performance data(primarily the virtual machines) collected by vCenter to other server/plaform?

the official document only described that forwarding vcenter syslog to a remote server(VC management interface) is supported.

any ideas?

As far as I know this is not possible.

What other platform?

Many tools can integrate with vSphere, such as Zabbix, DynaTrace, SolarWinds, and more.

[nblr06]

yeah, I was thinking about something like Elastic Stack and nagios.

it seemed that it's doable via vSphere sdk/api and this could be the simplest way?

[scott28tt]

That would be the approach that most admins take.

The only option is to use PowerCLI or use API
