Overview ¶
Nagios plugin used to monitor the number of snapshots per Virtual Machine.
PURPOSE ¶
Monitor the number of snapshots for each Virtual Machine. VMware recommends using no more than 3 or 4 snapshots per Virtual Machine and only for a limited duration. A maximum of 32 snapshots per Virtual Machine are supported. See https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1025279 for more information.
The current design of this plugin is to evaluate *all* Virtual Machines, whether powered off or powered on. If you have a use case for evaluating *only* powered on VMs by default, please post it to https://github.com/atc0005/check-vmware/discussions/177 providing some details for your use-case.
The output for this plugin is designed to provide the one-line summary needed by Nagios for quick identification of a problem while providing longer, more detailed information for use in email and Teams notifications (https://github.com/atc0005/send2teams).
