If you're running a home lab and want a Ducksboard dashboard such as mine, this project might be of some use to you.
I'm going to assume that you've already made a dashboard on Ducksboard, have made some widgets, and understand the basics of making POST calls to an API via PowerShell 3.0 or higher.
The basic steps:
- You can view a sample creds.ps1 file for your script. Fill in the fields marked with three !!! marks. Place it somewhere safe since the passwords are only encrypted in memory - someone can still open the file and read your creds.
- Run the collector.ps1 script. It spawns a job for each type of collection. Each job pulls credentials from the creds.ps1 file.
Currently tested and working:
- VMware vCenter 5.x
- VMware NSX 6.x
- PernixData FVP 1.5
Road map:
- Tintri VMstore
- EMC VNX
- Coho Data Datastream
- VCE Vision
