[Check_mk (english)] Check_MK support for vCenter running ESXi 6.7 Update 1

[Torben Møller]

Hi,

We just upgraded a couple of our vCenter server to the ESXi 6.7 Update1 released from VMware last month.

After the upgrade Check_MK no longer is able to connect and monitor these.
The error message while trying to talk to the agent is following

[Loading Image...]<javascript:start_host_diag_test('agent',%20'vc3.corp.lego.com');>

Agent exited with code 1: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/omd/sites/Nagios01_East/share/check_mk/agents/special/agent_vsphere", line 1188, in <module>
retrieve_systeminfo()
File "/omd/sites/Nagios01_East/share/check_mk/agents/special/agent_vsphere", line 1153, in retrieve_systeminfo
systeminfo[entry] = function and function(element[0]) or element[0]
ValueError: invalid literal for float(): 6.7.1



We are running Check_MK CEE v1.4.0p34
Have been looking at werks for newer releases but does not see any record on this error being corrected.

Anyone having same issue or can Check_MK confirm if and/or when we might have a version that support the ESXi 6.7.1 release?

Thanks

[Randal, Phil]

We're running 1.5.0p7 against esxi 6.7U1 hosts without problems, apart from the below, which happens with all versions of ESXi we've pointed check_mk at (5.5, 60., 6.7, 6.7U1):

Check_mk status detail "OK - [special_vsphere] Version: unknown, OS: unknown, execution time 1.0 sec".

I'm not sure what caused that regression or how to fix it.

Cheers,

Phil
