VMWARE-VMINFO-MIB

Monitored by Observium 
        This MIB module provides for monitoring of inventory and state via polling
and notifications of state changes for virtual machines residing on
this host system.  This MIB module also provides a mapping beween SMI
managed objects defined here and their corresponding VMware Virtual
Infrastructure Management (VIM) API properties.
Observium actively monitors this MIB
Observium uses this MIB in discovery or polling workflows on applicable devices.

NameOIDDescription
vmwVmPoweredOn

.1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.1
This trap is sent when a virtual machine is powered on from a suspended
or a powered off state. The origin of this event can be several:
for instance may be operator initiated, existing vmx process reconnects to control subsystem.
NOTE: vms powered up due to VMotion are not reported. Upon receiving this notification client applications should
poll the vmwVmTable to obtain current status.
vmwVmPoweredOff
vmwVmID vmwVmConfigFilePath vmwVmDisplayName
.1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.2
This trap is sent when a virtual machine is powered off. The origin of this event can be several:
for instance may be operator initiated, vmx process terminating abnormally. NOTE: vms powered down due
to VMotion are not reported. Upon receiving this notification client applications should
poll the vmwVmTable to obtain current status.
vmwVmHBLost
vmwVmID vmwVmConfigFilePath vmwVmDisplayName
.1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.3
This trap is sent when a virtual machine detects a loss in guest heartbeat. The Guest heartbeat
is only sent if VMware Tools are installed in the Guest OS. Control process will send this event whenever it
determines the number of guest heartbeats for a given period of time have not been received.
Upon receiving this notification client applications should
poll the vmwVmTable to obtain current status.
vmwVmHBDetected
vmwVmID vmwVmConfigFilePath vmwVmDisplayName
.1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.4
This trap is sent when a virtual machine detects or regains the required number of guest heartbeats
for a given period of time. This is only sent if VMware tools are installed in the Guest OS.
Upon receiving this notification client applications should
poll the vmwVmTable to obtain current status.
vmwVmSuspended
vmwVmID vmwVmConfigFilePath vmwVmDisplayName
.1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.4.1.0.5
This trap is sent when a virtual machine is suspended. The origin of this event may be several: operator
initiated, by software api clients, and by other means.
Upon receiving this notification client applications should
poll the vmwVmTable to obtain current status.
