Get vm from port id

[vmwarelicense12]

How do i from powercli get a vm from a port ID?

You mean something like this?

$portId = 1

Get-VDSwitch | Get-VDPort -Key $portId |

Select Switch,Portgroup,@{N='VM';E={$_.ConnectedEntity.Parent.Name}}

Not exactly. It does not return the name om the VM, witch I am interested in.

[LucD]

It does for me.

Are you sure you are not looking at a port Id that has no VM connected?
