I need the documents/instructions on how to add ESXi nodes to Pulseway so I can monitor their status. I tried to configure an ESXi host's information at Server Modules/VMware without any success.

Thank you

Hey @Thanh - Here's what you can do:

Enable legacy agent mode > To enable Legacy Mode run the below script on the system with the Pulseway agent installed.

Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" AgentLegacyMode -Value 1

Perform the below steps on the Pulseway agent manually in registry after the above step. 
 
HYPER-V and VMWARE : 
On the server, go to the registry editor.  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor and check and make sure these four are enabled with 1 data.  
 
DisplayHyperV, MonitorVMware, DisplayVMware, and MonitorVMware.  
 
That will enable Hyper-V and VMware on the Pulseway manager. 

Enable legacy agent mode -> To enable Legacy Mode run the below script on the system with pulseway agent installed.

Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" AgentLegacyMode -Value 1

Perform the below steps on the pulseway agent manually in registry after the above step. 
 
HYPER-V and VMWARE : 
On the server, go to the registry editor.  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor and check and make sure these four are enabled with 1 data.  
 
DisplayHyperV, MonitorVMware, DisplayVMware, and MonitorVMware.  
 
That will enable Hyper-V and VMware on the Pulseway manager. 
 
It is possible to enable this functionality using the script.
 
Please configure the Hyper-V module on one of your monitored systems.
 
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" -Name DisplayHyperV -Value 1
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" -Name MonitorHyperV -Value 1
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" -Name PrioritySendNotificationOnHyperVReplicationCritical -Value 3
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" -Name PrioritySendNotificationOnHyperVReplicationWarning -Value 2
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" -Name SendNotificationOnHyperVReplicationCritical -Value 1
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" -Name SendNotificationOnHyperVReplicationWarning -Value 1

If the above still does not work, please share some screenshots of what exactly is not visible OR not working.

Thank you, I have set the registry keys, but nothing changed. Here is my VMware setting in the server modules:
From the Pulseway webapp, I don't see any VMware node in the host where I configured the server modules.

Do I need a separate license for VMware? I am using vSphere ESXi 8.0U3

I appreciate your help
