Re: VM Snapshot

Hello,

I have some commands to check the VMs that has the snapshot name:

$VMlist = get-vm
Get-Snapshot -VM $VMlist | where{$_.Description -eq 'Prior to install VMTools'}

But the output is displaying like this. Is there anyway I can see the VM names in the result?

You could use nested Where-clauses.

Get-VM |
Where-Object{Get-SNapshot -VM $_ | Where-Object{$_.Description -eq 'Prior to install VMTools'}} |
Select-Object -Property Name

Thank you.

Is there anyway I can list the Snapshot Date as well in the output ?

The returned Snapshot object contains a property Created, which you can add on the Select-Object cmdlet.
