[FIXED] 2.4.0 agent_vsphere: error: argument --vm_pwr_display: invalid choice: 'host' (choose from vm, esxhost)

Feedback 2.4 Beta

I cannot figure out what it’s asking me to do here–I’ve re-entered the password for vCenter but it stoped working as soon as we went to 2.4.0. Known issue/bug?

For what it’s worth, unchecking “Display VM power state additionally on” (was checked with option “The queried ESX system (Center / Host)” solved the issue. Seems like a bug/migration issue.

Hi @sherman82828 ,

There is an internal ticket for this.
I’ll keep you updated on the solution.

Let me also reference another thread about this here: Checkmk 2.4 is Released! - #8 by DanielDS
