A Supported VMware Host

Currently, the supported VMware hosts are:

VMware vCenter 2.5 and above: This is the recommended option. All the ESX/ESXi hosts are integrated into a unique concentrator, and the Web service allows us to retrieve all the Security events from this unique instance. If you’re monitoring a vCenter, you don’t need to monitor the individual ESX/ESXi hosts.

An advantage to monitoring a vCenter server is that you only have to create one data source to monitor your entire infrastructure. Also, historical events are preserved for a much longer time than by the ESX/ESXi hosts, so in case you turn off the ThinAgents for a while, you’ll be able to retrieve all the events that happened in the idle period.
