Number of CPU changes in VM

[VivekMi]

Hi Friends ,

I have a VM created few weeks / months back and i need to check whether number of CPU has been changed since the VM is created.

How can i achieve this.

Never had to do that but if you don't want to lock in the .log .

Maybe you can check if the .vmx file has changed but, this only will tell you if any config from the VM has changed.

Thanks for your reply , but i need to check whether number of cpu has been changed or not.

If it was a hot add, you should see something like 'Receiving Chipset.SetVCpuCount request' in the vmware.log. If the VM was down, the vmware.log does not update.

Cheers,

I found a post that could help you, if you implement it : https://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2015/08/how-to-audit-vm-reconfigurations-and-see-what-exactly-change...

But if you still don't have anything  implemented I think that you can't do anything.
