Discover ESX 4.0 License Information using vcloud usage meter 2.2

Hi,

I have installed vcloud usage meter version 2.2. I have one datacenter with three esx4.0 hosts running multiple machines.

The usage meter has started to collect the license information etc. But it is showing the license information of only one ESX4.0 host(the host on which the usage meter has been installed).No "fail" counters are being generated. What is the issue? Why am I not able to view the license information of the other 2 hosts?

Regards,

Vishal

Vishal,

Do all 3 hosts use the same license key?  Under the license tab, what is the of hosts attached to the license key? 

The failed counter will only show a value if the usage meter appliance is unable to communicate with or collect data from the vCenter Server.

Hi BigDave,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I have resolved the issue. It was a silly mistake on my part regarding the permissions of the usage meter appliance on the 2 ESX4.0 hosts.

Much appreciated.

Regards,

Vishal
