Hi Lane,
It should work in the free version; I use it. It's a bit limited, what it does is: - present you with a list of VMs on the machine (in a separate tab) - in that list, show the VM name, number of CPUs and assigned memory.
Documentation is a bit scarce (that's actually one of the first bugs in our Jira, oops); what you need is either a certificate setup for libvirt (I don't know how this works, I've never done it) or a passwordless SSH key for the user running the poller to log in to the VM host box.

Hi Guys,
Our purchase of the subscription version of Observium is pending, but meanwhile I am looking to see if anyone has been using the KVM virtual machine monitoring built into Observium.
I am curious if Observium is pulling the CPU, RAM, etc. for the KVM virtual machines running on each of the hypervisors or if its only monitoring whether the virtual machine is powered on or not. I read over the documentation, but unfortunately was unable to get it working at all thus far and am assuming its due to the free version not supporting.
Thanks in advance!
