Thick Provisoning and Thin Provisioning View in vCenter

Is there any way to tell which of your VM's or storage has been thick or thin provisioned in vCenter at all

Thank Q

I'm not sure whether there is an option to see how the storage is provisioned (maybe with vendor additions like PowerPath, ...). However, in the VM's HDD settings and in the datastore browser you can see how the virtual disks are provisioned. As an alternative take a look at RVTools (http://www.robware.net/) which gives you a great overview of this and other settings.
