While your question is quite generic, I will try to address it to cover most.

I want to ask VMware ESXi HOST and Guest based on which metric you must follow threshold.

Well, if you wish to monitor the CPU, Memory, disk space/writes, network traffic, you can always use:

1. esxtop http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-9279

2. VEEAM or SolarWinds

3. Any additional software http://communities.vmware.com/thread/137349

How do you monitor VMware. What should I do.

If you are mentioning about the server hardware health, then you can always use the management software based on your server.
