List VMs with Hostname Viewable

[TheVMinator]

I'd like to get a list of all VMs in my environment.  Then for each one, I'd like to know if Vmware tools is installled and working, then I'd like to know if  the hostname inside the GuestOS is viewable, and if so what it is. 

How can I do this with PowerCLI?

Does this work for you?

$VMs = Get-VM

$Report = @()

foreach ($VM in $VMs){

$Tools = $VM.ExtensionData.Guest.ToolsStatus

$dns = $VM.ExtensionData.Guest.Hostname

$Report += New-Object PSObject -Property @{

VM_Name = $VM

Tools_Status = $Tools

DNS_Name = $dns}

}

$Report | select VM_Name,Tools_Status,DNS_Name

$Report | select VM_Name,Tools_Status,DNS_Name | Export-Csv C:\scripts\listvm.csv -NoTypeInformation
