Get-Stat for Power Usage of the ESXi Server

[krish290785]

Hi All

Need your help in getting a script to capture the power consumption/usage of an esxi host. I checked the get-stat command, I don't see any special argument as power usage to check for the host entity. The time interval can be anything, i would like to see the same values that are showing under for power under the performance charts of an esxi host.

Any quick help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Try like this

001 002 003 004 005

$entity = Get-VMHost -Name MyEsx $stat = "power.power.average" Get-Stat -Entity $entity -Stat $stat -Realtime -MaxSamples 1

That worked !  Thought no parameters for power stats. Should have check the Get-StatType
