    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I was hoping vifs.pl would be my solution but the Directory List function contains no more information in the output than the filenames themselves.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Seeing as vSphere Client never confirms an upload of a file, I have no way of knowing if the source iso's I'm wanting to copy over are there in full and useable.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;vifs.pl&lt;/STRONG&gt; just provides a very basic view, you can retrieve additional information, take a look at this script: &lt;A href="https://communities.vmware.com/d-10788"&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Regarding verifying an upload and md5 or any type of verification, I'm not aware of any. The method it's probably is using is &lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk400pubs/ReferenceGuide/vim.FileManager.html#copyFile"&gt;CopyDatastoreFile_Task&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt; which will just let you know if it uploaded successfully or if it faults. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;=========================================================================&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;William Lam&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;VMware vExpert 2009&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;VMware ESX/ESXi scripts and resources at: &lt;A href="http://engineering.ucsb.edu/~duonglt/vmware/"&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://communities.vmware.com/d-9852"&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://communities.vmware.com/c-3075"&gt;VMware Code Central - Scripts/Sample code for Developers and Administrators&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://communities.vmware.com/c-2414"&gt;VMware Developer Comuunity&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://twitter.com/lamw"&gt;Twitter: @lamw&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;IMG src="http://engineering.ucsb.edu/~duonglt/vmware/vexpert_silver_icon.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you find this information useful, please award points for "correct" or "helpful".&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
