VM powered off Status

M

Hello - Is there any way we can check when did VMs were powered off in Prism Element/PC. 

Note: I am using Prism Central starter license.

Hi Mahendra,

In Prism Element go to the virtual machine and (after selecting the vm) go to “VM Tasks” and there you can find the last restarts. But the powered off is a bit hard. I always look at the counters, for example, memory usage goes to 0 then you know the machine was powered off.

You can get the VM list based on the power stastus from the Prism Central. 

Compute & Storage → VMs Under Filter Power  state filer is availabe (on, Off, Suspended, paused , unknown)

Bases on the selection you can get the desire results
