We are looking to use the VMWare - Monitoring Extension
I need some clarification if this extension uses Vcenter or if host info needs to be captured in the config file for each VM and Host managed by Vcenter?
The documentation is not very clear on that or the specific permissions required for the user that does authentication.
See image below for reference.
What is the difference between the "host" in the servers section at the top of the config and the "host" in the hostconfig section further down. Which one do we use if our client's Vcenter is managing 200 Hosts?
config.yml

Hi Arun
Thanks for the input.
Do you know anything more about the permissions the user account requires that authenticates with vCenter?

Hi Dietrich
It seems it needs admin/root-level permission.

Thanks for the input Arun and Atyuha.
I am marking this as solved as I got the answers I needed. Just waiting for the client to come back to me before we can proceed with the actual testing.
