Powershell is definitely the way to go.

I saw this post after I cooked up a little PowerShell script to search for my VM:

The script searches all ESX hosts for the VM. It probably isn't the most efficient PowerShell script, but it does what it has to do

$searchservers = @(’host1′,’host2′,’host3′)
$SearchVM=’S-VC’

foreach ($vmhost in $searchservers)
{
connect-viserver $vmhost > out-null
if (get-vm | where {$_.Name -eq $SearchVM})
{
write-host $SearchVM " found on host " $vmhost
}
}

The article I posted it in: http://www.vmguru.nl/wordpress/2009/01/searching-for-a-vm/
