We use VMware 6.7 and have no issues. Do you guys have VMware Tools properly installed and updated on your guest VMs?

Update: we upgrade VMware to 6.5.0 and duplication issue has been resolved.

I believe its issue in earlier version of VMware.

Same issue here. three host ESXi 6.5 cluster, two standalone ESXi 5.5, and one old ESX 4.x.

Around 400 VM's but Observium says 42.2k.

Hi,

We have the same (similar) problem. We have one ESXi that is reported in Observium as having over 15000 VMs running on it (in fact no more than 20). Duplicates were added during every discovery, so to stop this cancerous growth I disabled "virtual machines" discovery module for that one.

The machine in question is VMware ESXi 5.0.0 (build-469512).

We have 31 ESXi machines, and this is the only one making a mess. Strangely enough, we have a bunch of machines running exactly the same version of ESXi, which do not exhibit this problem. SNMP config is exactly the same on all of them. Do you have any suggestions what can be wrong?

Is there any development going on in this issue? because we have ~25 VMware Host so it's making mess.
