Track changes in cluster

[KunAguero]

Hello all,

I'm using vSphere Client version 6.7.

i have a cluster in data center which today, suddenly, a new VM appeared in the cluster.

i'm not sure who moved it or what happened exactly.

what i'm looking for is some log or interface where i can find the answer to how the VM added/restored maybe into the cluster.

i'm not sure what is the method of tracking this but i'm looking for something like: "user123 moved VM name VM1 to cluster XYZ"

Thanks,

John

You could try this way: Click VM -> Monitor -> Tasks or Events

Or

Check the VM logs files: ESXi/ESX hosts store virtual machine-specific logging in the same directory as the virtual machine's configuration files.

The default log file name is vmware.log.

There are various actions which could result in this - examples: a new VM, a clone, deployment from a template, a migration from a host outside of the cluster, adding an unregistered VM to the inventory.

Review your events at the cluster level.
