  2. That CDP / LLDP is operating in the switches, to obtain this data NIACTool connects by SSH to the IP.
  3. Delivered to generate the report, niactool will request the user's password "nutanix" to be able to connect. Niactool must have access to port 22 of the IP declared in "prism element ip".

Zip Report:        

  1. It is recommended to use ZIP file when collecting metrics, since images are generated that can consume some disk space.

RUN EVERY:         

It can be programmed so that niactool runs every 5 minutes, when using RUN EVERY the "vms metrics" and "CDP" options are deactivated since they require user interaction. It is recommended to run a

RUN NOW to validate that everything is operational before using RUN EVERY, the process will repeat infinitely until the user closes niactool.

Improvements :

  1. The gui no longer freezes when pressing "run".
  2. You can see the console and a status bar of what niactool is doing.

IMPORTANT

  1. This version is in the testing phase, feedback is important to find errors.
  2. This version is not published on the official site and to access it it is necessary to communicate intermanently.

I would dearly love to be able to get this again. I used it in a previous role but don't have the binaries anymore! I went to get them and it said they aren't available to download. :-( Any chance you could help a fellow sysadmin out? It's a great tool. Cheers,
