all VMs Removed - why ?

Hi,
is there any idea, why observium has removed all VMs from the ESXi Server, like this:
1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564da96d-e3b0-b511-66cc-2a184a576652 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d8984-0864-6b78-7d91-36f2c13e53d6 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d4905-87d7-6fdf-bc72-753c916ef3c1 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d2060-e2e4-9949-97a6-28cb5f02e801 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d3421-27c8-04ea-7ef8-139af5ebcb5c 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d18eb-bad5-0691-7acf-3cb24787c0c1 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d523c-b392-e037-12e6-4c93b9dc82b1 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564dc378-b321-2b72-176f-09c8fc5a1116 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564db385-e361-5d0a-3167-d9a416357692
...
The tab for virtual machines no longer appears ... . There was no change at the ESXi.
VMWARE-SYSTEM-MIB and VMWARE-VMINFO-MIB are enabled.
I restarted the snmp agant at the ESXi host, run poller.php again , but it changes nothing.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Let me ask my question something different. What causes that Oberservium rekognizes a ESXi Host as hypervisor, so that it brings a additional tab with virtual maschines configured at this host ? How can a debug, why Observium has removed the tab ?

These are added in discovery, but you can run discovery in debug mode and check for SNMP responses.
./poller.php -h <host> -d -m virtual-machines
You'll be able to see in the output whether the system is returning the vms, which I'll guess it isn't.
The virual-machines module should run the vmware-vminfo-mib submodule on devices with the is 'vmware'.

Hi Adam,
thanks for your reply. But it seems, the MIB will not polled:

I see only these snmp* commands for vmware
vmwProdName.0 vmwProdVersion.0 vmwProdBuild.0 vmwProdUpdate.0
with return values
vmwProdName.0 = VMware ESXi vmwProdVersion.0 = 6.5.0 vmwProdBuild.0 = 4564106 vmwProdUpdate.0 = 0
and
./poller.php -dd -h krake-eth0 -m vmware-vminfo-mib
returns
CMD[/usr/bin/snmpget -v2c -c '********' -Pu -OQUs -m VMWARE-SYSTEM-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp:/opt/observium/mibs/vmware 'udp':'krake-eth0':'161' vmwProdName.0 vmwProdVersion.0 vmwProdBuild.0 vmwProdUpdate.0]

But
/usr/bin/snmpwalk -v2c -c '********' -Pu -OQUs -M /opt/observium/mibs/vmware 'udp':'krake-eth0':'161'
brings also no VM Names ... . Maybe an ESXi issue ?
