Hi,
Telegraf 1.21.4+ds1-0ubuntu2
vCenter: 8.0.2 23929136
it was metric error.
I am in day 5th with IP on vsphere-stats.conf and no issue, for some reason FQDN stop working after 24 hours, not a big deal just wanted to let you know.

Hello,
What vCenter version are you running? And the unable to find metric is a warning or error?

Also, what telegraf version?

Thank you for all Dashboard, really helpful, all of my VMware dashbaord stop working after 24 Hrs, when I do ” systemctl status telegraf.service” it gives me below:
[inputs.vsphere] Error in plugin: Post “https://vcenter.exmaple.com/sdk”: dial tcp: lookup vcenter.exmaple.com: no such host

I can ping vcenter.exmaple.com from my ubuntu 22.04 with no issue, however I replaced it with vCenter IP and restarted telegraph service, now I am getting:

[inputs.vsphere] Unable to find metric name for id 429. Skipping!

Hello Jorge, thanks for dashboard is working perfectly.

In the vsphere overview row, when there is more than one vcenter it separates the information, how is it possible for information from each vcenter to appear when filtered?

Hello, might be a bug on Grafana.com, try the revisions page, download latest: https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/8159-vmware-vsphere-overview/?tab=revisions
