vApps needed to create a reports

[chethanvasista]

Hi All,

Need help on creating the report, we are having 5 esx 3.5 server and each having 350 VMs approximately which is used only for development, every month we need to create a report of these 5 esx servers and report details are as below.

VM Name

Host Name

Status - up or down

Date of Creation

vCPUs Count

RAM details

Storage Location

Hard disk in thin provision

hard disk space used on SAN

now our management told to provide these report by week, can you please suggest any vApps to get these report at lease storage location, hard disk details of VMs. because DSR is enabled and it is in auto mode. VM will be moved from one to another storage if disk threshold is occurred.

Thanks,

Chethan Sheshadri

Welcome to the VMware Communities forums. I've moved your post to the PowerCLI forum. With the PowerCLI you can produce a report like this fairly easily.

This command will get you most of the items you need, but you would have to dig a bit more to extract all the disk information.

Get-VM | select name, VMhost, PowerState, NumCPU, MemoryMB | FT

Here's some code for getting the create date http://get-admin.com/blog/?p=725 and if you search around there should be some examples in this forum to determine the disk sizes and other info you need. Someone may just have a copy of the report already done
