Not many people are running FT VMs. and even less people know about the ft-stats command. Now if you don't use a FT vm what this command can give you?
Answer: a fast report on the vmid and path to your VMs
"ft-stats -lv"
Now Why the state is set as "Not Configured"? Because none of the VM was configured as a FT VM
From time to time, you may want to know how many ESX servers in your vCenter, what are their build levels, how many VMs are registered, how many powered on, etc. There is a fast way to give you all those information. All you need to look is the vpxd-profiler.log on your vCenter server. This log is in the same directory as your vpxd.log file
for example on a Windows 2008 server the log is at
\Users\All Users\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\Logs\
What you need look for is the "InventoryStats". You are going to see something like this
those logs update every 5 minutes, you can show your boss, you are on top of things.
Note: this log can be large enough to hung notepad or wordpad. I do suggest you to move to a Linux to read it.
