    • VMware vCenter version 8.0.3.00400
      Zabbix Proxy from 7.0.0 to 7.0.5 (tried on Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04 with PostgreSQL 16)
    • Support backlog

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Link template VMware to vCenter server host
      2. Execute discovery rules or template items

      Result:
      All simple check failed with timeout, discovery rules also failed
      See attached screenshots.
      Expected:
      Receive latest data to simple check items and create datastores and ESXi host from prototypes

      In Proxy log's we observe (full log is attached):

      I've tried all Proxy's versions from 7.0.0 to 7.0.5 with PostgreSQL on Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04 the result is the same. If I add this vCenter without Proxy, discovery will work as it should. I tried to reproduce this issue on vCenter 8.0.2 but it works well because there are no GPU perf counters. (i checked it via this script )

      Discovery and simple checks on vCenter server 8.0.3 added to Zabbix Server without Proxy works fine.
