ESXI 6.5 No health status/hardware status/monitor

[jonhl9]

Hi,

This is the specs of my homelab running ESXI 6.5

Mobo : Asus Z8NA-D6

CPU: 2 x Xeon L5460

RAM: 6 x 4GB DDR3

I want to monitor the temperatures of my CPUs and other parts but there is nothing is the "health status" section in vSphere client:

Nothing on the web client either:

I have tried restarting the CIM service but same thing.

Any idea?

p.s.

I also get this error if I try to refresh the sensor data:

Call "HostHealthStatusSystem.Refresh" for object "healthStatusSystem" on ESXi "192.168.1.10" failed.

same for reset :
Call "HostHealthStatusSystem.ResetSystemHealthInfo" for object "healthStatusSystem" on ESXi "192.168.1.10" failed.

Hello,

1. Check if there are any errors reported on syslog.

2. Check the status of sfcbd-watchdog

3. Observe the service status after restarting.

Is this a fresh install or an upgrade?

please see the below KB article;

VMware Knowledge Base

This seems to be a common problem with the below thread addressing various workarounds/semi-fixes;
