Étapes de mise en place: Create a read-only user in vSphere
On a vCenter, open Administration → Single Sign On → Users and Groups → Users, choose the domain vsphere.local, click Add and enter this user name with a long random password.
dumbmonitOpen Administration → Access Control → Global Permissions → Add: pick that user, role Read-only, tick Propagate to children.
On a standalone ESXi host instead: in the host client, Manage → Security & users → Users → Add user dumbmonit, then Host → Actions → Permissions → Add user with role Read-only.
In DumbMonit, enter the vCenter or host address, with the user [email protected] on a vCenter or dumbmonit on a host. Add only the vCenter when one manages the hosts.
À savoir. vCenter and ESXi use a self-signed certificate by default: enable "Accept an unverifiable certificate" unless the DumbMonit host trusts their certificate authority.
