We are running ESXi 4.1 with vCenter 4.1. Both our vCenter server and its SQL backend are located on VMs. Recently, our SQL server went down rendering vCenter useless. I got everything back up successfully by logging into the SQL Server VM's host with my vSphere client and rebooting it. However, without vCenter, I was logging into each host and checking the inventory looking for the VM. Fortunately we don't have a lot of hosts, but is there a script or tool that I can ues to find out on which host a particular VM resides when vCenter is unavailable?
Thanks--
