My inderstanding is that if I rename the VM then it doesn't rename the directory allocated for that machine on the datastore (where all the files pertinent to this machine are kept). I just started working for the company and when I look at the VM I don't see machine that corrsponds to datastore directory.

Is there a way to figure out of this is the orphaned directory that can be removed from datastore or there is actually a VM using it?

Thanks.

Elijah.
