This project consists in two Powershell scripts by Mike Nisk - https://github.com/vmkdaily to retrieve the vSphere information and send it directly to InfluxDB, then in Grafana: a Dashboard is created to present all the information.

You can follow the steps on the next Blog Post in Spanish - https://www.jorgedelacruz.es/2017/06/12/en-busca-del-dashboard-perfecto-influxdb-telegraf-y-grafana-parte-vii-monitorizar-vsphere/

But in case you can't read Spanish:

• Download the Scripts from the official repo https://github.com/vmkdaily/vFlux-Stats-Kit to the computer you want to run the Scripts periodically
• You should have VMware PowerCLI on this machine
• Edit the Scripts and add your InfluxDB IP or FQDN, InfluxDB users and Database, logging, etc.
• Run the Scripts to check that you can retrieve the information properly
• Schedule the Scripts in Windows to run every X minutes, where you decide the X
• Download the VMware Stats Grafana JSON file and import it into your Grafana
• Change your inforamtion inside the Grafana and enjoy :)

• You can find all the Scripts on the official repo by Mike Nisk - https://github.com/vmkdaily/vFlux-Stats-Kit
• This repository it's just intended to provide the Dashboard json file and some help
