Hi,
Am i missing is it or not, but the reports are not showing individual vsphere servers. I mean the ones that are not clustered. Only cluster nodes are shown.. Will you please confirm this?
Thanks,
Engin

@oui,
The new 5.0 version actually supports hosts outside of a VMware cluster, you should be able to see standalone systems.

Hi,
When you use type "Datacenter" as parameter, it's not showing the standalone vsphere servers. Also, when you use "vcenter" as type, in the Hosts and Virtual Machines tab, it writes them as Cluster:Hostname.
Thanks.

@oui,
Do you mind posting the details of your environment, version, etc. in http://communities.vmware.com/groups/vspherehealthcheck
Regarding the tab names, that was done on purpose, the name hopefully should indicate it's a stand alone host vs. cluster. It sounds like it does work when you're using vCenter type but not datacenter?

Hello will,
I am using the script with vsphere 5.5 support and since i added a new cluster on the 5.5 datacenter,
the cluster tab in the report is empty.
Is there a debug option to investigate ?
Thanks

Any chance this might get updated to work with vsphere 6.5 appliances and postgres database?
