Hi Ondra, Unfortunately, the setuid for df works only for ESX 5.1. I recommend updating as far as possible. If not, logging as root is the only solution we've found so far to get monitoring to work on ESX 5.0 datastores, but it is not ideal for production environments.
Hope it helps, -Tino -- OpenNebula - Flexible Enterprise Cloud Made Simple -- Constantino Vázquez Blanco, PhD, MSc Senior Infrastructure Architect at C12G Labs www.c12g.com | @C12G | es.linkedin.com/in/tinova -- Confidentiality Warning: The information contained in this e-mail and any accompanying documents, unless otherwise expressly indicated, is confidential and privileged, and is intended solely for the person and/or entity to whom it is addressed (i.e. those identified in the "To" and "cc" box).
