    Hello

    Try to compile spreadsheet of VMs that have VMTools  installed/updated/running  and timestamp  when tools have been modified.

    Looking for advise/instructions on how this can be done quickly.

    Regards

    RVtools may be doing what you want (the vTools tab - it reports whether vmware tools are installed and the version - and it exports to excel)

    Thanks for prompt reply

    I am aware of crafting report utilizing RVTools, however , time when tools have been installed/upgraded is something my boss wanted to know.

    Looking more for script/command in powercli that would give me desired result

    For PowerCLI questions check the PowerCLI community forum.

    I'm not sure how to get the installation time with PowerCLI.
