Problem monitoring Vmware 6.7

[aros]

Hello

I've Vmware infrastructure with 50Esxi 6.0 and 6.5 and a VCENTER 6.7.

When I want to monitor datastore with default template I have this error :

1530:20181206:151551.685 error reason for "0c8c51b3-6b8f-4dc1-972b-2a717b6b0c8c:vmware.hv.datastore.size[{$URL},{HOST.HOST},VMWarelun10]" changed: Performance counter data is not available.

On vcenter 6.0 I dont have this problem.
Maybe API 6.7 has changed and is not compatible with Zabbix template. Do you have information about that ?

Thanks

If it's possible for you to enable LogLevel=5 you will be able to get more information with XML requests/responses to get the idea what is causing that. But it'll be looooots of log information, you need to have big enough log file. Also you can change log levels on the fly:

zabbix_server -Rlog_level_increase="vmware collector"
zabbix_server -Rlog_level_increase="vmware collector"

and when done with it, get it back:

zabbix_server -Rlog_level_decrease="vmware collector"
zabbix_server -Rlog_level_decrease="vmware collector"

I dont have more information about json with high log level but I find another log. Is not a Vmware API problem but a timeout :

Maybe with 50esxi and 40 datastores generate too many API request ?

Interesting, perhaps report it as a bug in our bug tracker https://support.zabbix.com and post here the issue number.

Did someone already find a solution on this?
