The add-on is updated to collect hierarchy inventory data to support the Splunk Supporting Add-on for VMware. Also, any occurrences of biased terms such as blacklist, whitelist, master, and slave have been replaced with appropriate unbiased terms. The occurrences of biased terms that refer to Splunk core terminology have been kept as is.

Version 4.1.0

Version 4.1.0 of Splunk Add-on for VMware Metrics collects performance data of vCenter servers, clusters, datastores, ESXi hosts, and virtual machines in a metrics index.

The Splunk Add-on for VMware version 3.4.7 can coexist with the Splunk Add-on for VMware Metrics on the same scheduler, indexer, and search head instances. However, the DCN instances of both add-ons must be different.
