Understandable, thanks for your help. 
Excellent, thanks for that. Also, I looked at your backup app.. looks amazing, however I am on a linux host. Any plans to support that in the future?

I'm more interested in finding out if there is a command line method for checking which machines are powered off vs. suspended.

Hi all, had a good old google but couldn't find info on this: In the vmware article: Best practices when backing up a VmWare workstation virtual machine It mentions that before the copy operation, the vm needs to be in a 'powered off' state. Does this mean the vm needs to be shutdown completely, or is pause/suspend sufficient? If it needs total shutdown, how can i check with the command line if there are machines paused/suspended? when executing 'vmrun list', we get a list of running machines but this does not include suspended/paused machines. Any help would be massively appreciated.
