Is there any way to create folders for my VMs on ESXi Hypervisor 5.1? I can create folders for my VMs on my licensed ESXi hosts with vCenter. The closest I can get on ESXi Hypervisor is to create Resource Pools for them, but that's obviously not the correct methodology and I don't want to do it.
Is this another limitation of ESXi Hypervisor?
Answer
There is no way to organize them into folders. If you get creative with the naming scheme you can get away with it, though. ESXi allows VMs to have special characters in their names, so you could prefix the name with a tag (like... (WEB) for web servers, or something) so it'll appear in a certain spot on the list.
vCenter is definitely the way to go if you have enough VMs to need organizing.
