Any specific reason why this should be a VBS sript and not a PowerCLI script ?

[nikheelkumar16]

There is no such reasons why this should not be in PS

it's just that our most of the scripts are in vbs.. hence was looking for the same.

I am looking for a script that would be running in esx/esxi since we have both the type of servers.

Thanks Lucd for the helping me

But the reason i am looking for such a script is because, incase of absense of senior administrator, even the local desktop engineers should be able to perform the task, and operations should go on.
