List all ESX Hosts and their Service console information:

Get-VMHost | Get-VMHostNetwork | Select Hostname, ConsoleGateway, DNSAddress -ExpandProperty ConsoleNic | Select Hostname, PortGroupName, IP, SubnetMask, ConsoleGateway, DNSAddress, Devicename

 

Processor types:

Get-VMHost | Sort Name | Get-View | Select Name, @{N=“Cluster“;E={Get-Cluster -VMHost (Get-VMHost $_.Name)}},@{N=“CPU“;E={$_.Hardware.CpuPkg[0].Description}} | Export-Csv c:\Test.csv

 

NTP:

Get-VMHost |Sort Name|Select Name, @{N=“NTPServer“;E={$_ |Get-VMHostNtpServer}}, @{N=“ServiceRunning“;E={(Get-VmHostService -VMHost $_ |Where-Object {$_.key-eq “ntpd“}).Running}}

 

Host Hardware :

Get-VMHost |Sort Name |Get-View |
Select Name, 
@{N=“Type“;E={$_.Hardware.SystemInfo.Vendor+ “ “ + $_.Hardware.SystemInfo.Model}},
@{N=“CPU“;E={“PROC:“ + $_.Hardware.CpuInfo.NumCpuPackages + “ CORES:“ + $_.Hardware.CpuInfo.NumCpuCores + “ MHZ: “ + [math]::round($_.Hardware.CpuInfo.Hz / 1000000, 0)}},
@{N=“MEM“;E={“” + [math]::round($_.Hardware.MemorySize / 1GB, 0) + “ GB“}} | Export-Csv c:\Test.csv

 

VMs per Resource Pool:

Get-ResourcePool | Where {$_.Name -ne “Resources“ }| Select Name, @{N=“NumVM“;E={($_ | Get-VM).Count}} | Sort Name|Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation c:\Test.csv

 

Check VM nic speed:

Connect-VIServer MYVISERVER
 
$VMhosts = Get-VMHost | Get-View
Foreach ($vmhost in $vmhosts){
 Write-Output $vmhost.Name
 $pnic = 0
 Do { 
 $Speed = $VMhost.Config.Network.Pnic[$pnic].LinkSpeed.SpeedMb 
 Write "Pnic$pnic $Speed" 
 $pnic ++
 } Until ($pnic -eq ($VMhost.Config.Network.Pnic.Length))}
