# Testing using GOVCSIM.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To test the vsphere module without a real Vmware SDK URL you can use the following setup. Govcsim is a vCenter Server and ESXi API based simulator written using govmomi. It creates a vCenter Server model with a datacenter, hosts, cluster, resource pools, networks and a datastore.

|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
- golang 1.7+ installed on a system
|
|
- git installed on a system
|
|
|
|
1. Set the GOPATH where govcsim will be installed
|
|
```
|
|
export GOPATH=/directory/code
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Install Govcsim
|
|
```
|
|
go get -u github.com/vmware/vic/cmd/vcsim
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Run Govcsim
|
|
```
|
|
$GOPATH/bin/vcsim
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now setup your metricbeat config to connect to Govcsim:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
- module: vsphere
|
|
metricsets:
|
|
- datastore
|
|
- host
|
|
- virtualmachine
|
|
enabled: true
|
|
period: 5s
|
|
hosts: ["https://127.0.0.1:8989/sdk"]
|
|
|
|
username: "user"
|
|
password: "pass"
|
|
