    Zabbix Not Discovering Hypervisors/VMs using Template VM VMware

    Configuration
    Started 10 VMware Collectors
    Created host for vSphere (8615VVC001) (vSphere Client version 6.7.0.40000)
    Assigned Agent Interface IP 127.0.0.1
    Assigned "Template VM VMware" Template
    Created Macros {$URL}.{$USERNAME} and {$PASSWORD}

    Testing
    Clicked "Check Now" on Host's discoveries to force a check
    Event log item becomes unsupported "Cannot find items in performance counter list"

    Notes
    The only difference is https://8615VVC001/sdk doesn't exist, but https://8615VVC001/api does. So I am using /api as the URL.

      api & sdk - the big difference! Look for the internet how to make available SDK for your version vmware.

          Thanks, I found some instructions on enabling the /sdk endpoint. Now I get "no headers, no data".

          The logs show failing to authenticate;

          I am certain that the credentials are correct. Thanks
