Can I determine anything about the resource configuration of a recently deleted VM from the vcdb?

Just wondering if there is any trail left behind after a VM is deleted, where I might be able to determine the vCPU, vRAM config.

I've been poking around the database, but it seems like this is a non-starter.  

Does the answer change if the create or clone events are still present?

Regards,

Chris

If you have deleted a VM from disk .. than you will not find the traces of resource configuration of the respective Virtual machine .

if you have exported the VM information either using RVtools or other Vm monitoring tools you could find these details on it
