Probably better to have the plugin report any inaccessible datastores, not just a specific one as per the existing check_vmware_datastore plugin.

Allow for excluding datastores based on name, maybe based on prefix.

Looks like there is an accessible boolean property under the DatastoreSummary data object type. There is also a maintenanceMode property (string type, currently value normal for a functional datastore), which should probably be taken into consideration when considering whether an accessible property value of false should be acted upon.

Probably want to make sure the plugin name implies monitoring groups of datastores.

As already stated, the option to include or exclude based on name is a good direction. Additional features:

  • matching based on prefix
  • matching based on regex
  • matching based on folder

Some of this support can leverage existing functionality, other features will require expanding bundled library code.
