This started life as small script to collect VM info from 5 or 6 vCentre's (that were a mix of v2.5 and v4, and weren't linked together), so that VM's could be easily found without having to search through each one. There are essentially 3 components to it...

  1. Data collection scripts (run from a Windows desktop)
    • A daily PowerCLI script that collects data from all vCenters (and updates the database)
    • An intra-day PowerCLI script (say every 15mins) that collects basic cluster status data (and updates the database)
  2. MySQL database (run on an Ubuntu VM)
  3. PHP front end (delivered by Apache running on same Ubuntu VM)

Change Log

Version 1.1

  • Data Collection (db-base-data)
    • Bugfix: Where VC provides no VM FolderID, VM is assigned incorrect VC folder path - now catch as error
    • Bugfix: VM's having no IPAddress in vCentre not handled properly, causing errors - now handled silently
    • Bugfix: Added vmvcid to better handle Lab Manager v4 VM's with duplicate UUIDs
    • Bugfix: ESX's moving clusters causes duplicate ESX entries - old ESX/cluster entry now gets expired
    • Added snapshot info (data collection only, db table already existed)

Version 1.2

  • Bugfix: Snapshot sizes not right (known PowerCLI bug in Get-Snapshot that I'd wrongly assumed to be fixed)
  • Added population of snap.vrange (is snapshot a vRanger snapshot)
  • Added ESX extended data (inc IP - needs further work), ntp, hba and nic info
  • Consolidated SQL query strings
