Total Number of VM

[aldevar]

Hi all,

I'm trying to graph our total number of virtual machines in our vcenter.
This number appears on the Zabbix dashboard in the 'Host Status' part.
There is a Host Group 'Virtual Machines' with the total number of hosts it contains.

I've tried the Zabbix aggregate type to grpsum the item key 'vmware.hv.vm.num[{$URL},{HOST.HOST}]' present on each hypervisors but that doesn't work because the macros are not correct when called from the grpsum fonction.

grpsum["Hypervisors","vmware.hv.vm.num[{$URL},{HOST.HOST}]",last]

This gives me this error :

No items for key "vmware.hv.vm.num[https://myvcenter.domain.tld/sdk,myvcenter.hostname]" in group(s) "Hypervisors".

If I remove the macros, like this :

grpsum["Hypervisors","vmware.hv.vm.num",last]

I have this error :

No items for key "vmware.hv.vm.num" in group(s) "Hypervisors".

So, it seems Zabbix Aggregate won't allow me to graph this number.

Do you have an idea of how I can have this number to be able to graph it?

Hi,

I'm facing exactly the same issue. I just mentionned this post and problem on the Zabbix IRC channel to get this fixed.


Kind regards,
