Assuming that I know only the operating system host name, and I know that the virtual machine name is completely different from the OS host name, how can I query vcenter and find the virtual machine name that is associated with this operating system host name?
Thanks!
i.e
$hostname = ”windowshostname”
get-vm | where-object{$_.something? -eq $hostname}
Provided you have the VMware Tools installed on the VM, you can do
Get-VM | where-object {$_.Guest.HostName -eq $hostname}
