Hi Rashid,

The answer to your question depends on what your organization does and how you intend to use ESX. I work for a large school district and I've broken down our Datacenter heirarchy based on the fact we have 3 physical datacenters. All three are controlled from Virtual Center. Below these I've created pools for our desktops and servers. Beneath our desktops folder there is a folder for each school. Inside this folder the desktops are organized by staff and student. This heirarchy along with our VM naming convention helps us keep track of the hundreds of VMs we have running in our datacenters.

To summerize, the way you organize your folders in VC is completely up to you but choosing a method that makes sense to everyone is key.

As Ty indicated ot really depends on your organizational structure - because the permissions/control you assign should follow your organizational structure
