What is cpuVMID?

Identifies which running virtual machine a row in the CPU usage table describes, using the ID the VMkernel assigns; admins correlate this against vCenter's VM inventory to know which entry belongs to which VM.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.3.1.2.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> VMWARE-RESOURCES-MIB::cpuVMID

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.3.1.2.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> VMWARE-RESOURCES-MIB::cpuVMID.1
