Hi there
I'm using the below to find the creator for a single vm but running into a syntax issue. Can you please assist me in resolving the issue.
Get-VM -Name DCPLMS01 | Get-VIEvent -Types Info |`
Where {`
$_.GetType().Name -eq "VmBeingDeployedEvent"`
-or $_.GetType().Name -eq "VmCreatedEvent"`
-or $_.GetType().Name -eq "VmRegisteredEvent"} |`
Select UserName, CreatedTime, FullFormattedMessage | FT -AutoSize
Error:
