Important

This repository has been rewritten in Golang and is thus archived. Please find the new version at NETWAYS/check_vspheredb_data.

check_vspheredb_data is a check plugin for checking performance data gathered by the Icingaweb2 vSphereDB module against given thresholds written in Rust.

It allows for finegrained monitoring of ESXI hosts on Icinga2's side without the need to configure alerting on the vCenters' side as vSphereDB's inbuilt mechanisms do.
