Because I will be posting less in the upcoming weeks about problems I face at customer sites I will try to post some cool command-line tip or trick I discovered or picked up somewhere….
open ESX console ,via putty and type the following
vm-support -x
result: all the VMID’s also known as World ID’s,
And if you’re colleagues hardly ever clean up their snapshots:
find /vmfs/volumes -iname “*delta.vmdk”
result: every delta file gets listed, including the unregistered and/or orphaned snapshots ones!
