The information collected by the AM remote agent is similar to that collected by the local agent; however, there are differences in the type of information that can be collected by the AM remote agent, and this is dependent on the capabilities of the VMware programming interface.
The AM remote agent will report VMware ESX supported features as well as configuration information. This information is not reported by the local agent. The AM remote agent inventory collection, however, does not currently report information such as the host input devices.
Note: The collection of some Virtual Machine properties by the AM remote agent requires that VMware tools be installed and running on the Virtual Machines. The status of VMware tools can be determined by the Tools Status column for Virtual Machine properties. The properties that require VMware tools are Host Name, IP Address, Tools Version, Guest Family, Total Disk Space, Total Free Space, and Label.
