Listing the storage (LUN) of a Virtual Machine

Hi,

I created a report that is listing (among other things) some informations of a VM (cpu, memory, cluster, datacenter,....) on the top page. For this I built a "View" with a "List" in it, which shows the added "Data".

One Information that I really like to see here is the LUN Name (Storage) on which the vm resides. If the VM resides on more than one LUN (which should not occure, the LUN names could be comma seperated.

Any ideas?

Any help would be appreciated!

Chris

What did you use to create the report?  You can use a tool called RVTools that will export all that information out to a spreadsheet.  I'm not sure if that is what you are trying to do?

Hi all,

thanks for your answers.

I know how to get the Storages, LUNs and so on via powerCli, perltoolkit and so.

But as the sub forum should show, I am targeting on reports in vrealize Operations.

Or did I miss something and PowerCli can be used to extend vRops?
