Virtual Infrastructure DB Project

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...
- 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)
- MySQL database (run on an Ubuntu VM)
- PHP front end (delivered by Apache running on same Ubuntu VM)

Change Log
Version 1.1
- 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)
