Detection for VMware CIM service only if the communication is possible
Description
During the importing VMware host systems, the service for VMware CIM status monitoring is bind automatically. If you have more then one network attached to the ESX host system, it is not possible to define which of the interface can be used for the CIM queries from OpenNMS. Before adding all the interfaces, OpenNMS should test if the communication for querying CIM status and adding the service just if the service responds correctly.

Fixed with commit 70f1959723e9df1bfd52610332972487d51647d9 The service for CIM queries is bound on the first interface the communication is possible. This interface is then used for status polling and performance data collection.
