Nick from Nickapedia.com (or @lynxbat on Twiter) created an awesome free tool called the vSphere Mini-Monitor. This tool runs in your Windows tray and alerts you, in a variety of ways, about events that happen in your virtual infrastructure. Alert methods are a tray popup, via Twitter, via email, or through an RSS feed (that’s right, a Twitter tweet can be posted when an event happens in your vSphere infrastructure). Don’t worry, you can control what you get alerts for so that you aren’t barraged wth alerts. This tool is great for multi-admin environments where you have multiple VMware admins working on the infrastucture at the same time. Download the free vSphere Mini-Monitor here!
Note: make sure that you run the vSphere Mini-Monitor as administrator, as I demonstrate in the video.
