Hi all,

Am I able, by using the VIX API or any other way, to subscibe to events that happen on a vCenter/vSphere?

I want to be told of things like (but not necessarily limited to) a machine powering down,. The only workaround I can think of is polling which is very ineffecient and will drain all sorts of recources I wouldn't rather not drain!

Cheers

Pete
