    Hi All,
    for a vmware environment i ran a discovery, where i included only the IP address and the credentials of vCenter (esxi 6.0).
    i was able to load the hostname and IP address of the vcenter, the hypervisors and their guest machines, but no CIs (like CPU, memory, filesystem, etc.) they are empty in the server details, hardware tab, etc.
    1. could you please confirm that only with the vCenter credentials and it's IP address, i should be able to get all the CIs (like CPU, memory, filesystem, etc.) for all the managed hypervisors and their guest machines under this vCenter? however, i dont see even the CIs of the vCenter (just hostname and IP address is seen for it as well), what is weird.
    2. what could be the rootcause that i dont see the CIs?
    thanks, stefan

    Hi Stefan,

    Sorry discovery of ESX 6.0 is not supported.
    The CCA VMware vCenter Server v5.* blueprint only supports discovery up to ESX 5.x.
