HP ESXi 4.1 install - health monitoring

[Paul Quirk]

I've installed the HP build of ESXi 4.1 on a HP ProLiant ML350 G5 and in the health status section it has come up showing the drive and RAID array status ok, which is good. However it seems to be missing the standard health providers that appear with the offical VMWare download. Specifically it's missing the PSU status and temperature. The main one I want is the PSU... I'd like to know if a PSU dies.

Are these CIM's available to download or can you enable them somehow? Or are you better off to use the offical VMWare downlaod and install the HP CIM bundle separately?

If you go to the ESXi download section you should see the SIM agents. Park them on your vcenter server, make sure vSphere CLI is installed and run:

vihostupdate.pl --server --install --bundle hp-esxi4.1uX-bundle-1.0a.zip

That gave me all I needed
