Yesterday a new version (0.10.0) of pywbem was released. Will the monitoring plugin check_esxi_hardware continue to run without a glitch? It should, since the plugin was "made ready" for future releases of pywbem (see New version of check_esxi_hardware supports pywbem 0.9.x).

Let's try check_esxi_hardware with the new pywbem version. I used pip to upgrade pywbem to the latest available version:

 $ sudo pip install --upgrade pywbem
Downloading/unpacking pywbem from https://pypi.python.org/packages/9a/50/839b059c351c4bc22c181c0f6a5817da7ca38cc0ab676c9a76fec373d5f5/pywbem-0.10.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl#md5=1bc01e6fd91f5e7ca64c058f3e0c1254

And then launched the plugin:

$ ./check_esxi_hardware.py -H esxiserver -U root -P secret -v

As you can see, the new version works without problems. Go ahead and upgrade pywbem.
