Capacity & sprawl
vDatastore and vDisk tabs reviewed for thin/thick mismatches, orphaned disks and datastores heading toward full.
Independent vSphere reporting consultancy
Turn your RVTools export into decisions, not spreadsheets.
We help virtualization teams read RVTools inventory exports correctly — spotting orphaned VMDKs, snapshot sprawl, licensing risk and capacity cliffs before they become outages.

What we review in your export
Send us the .xlsx export from RVTools (or run it together on a screen share) and we walk through the tabs that matter operationally.
License & compliance exposure
vCPU/vMemory allocation vs. host cores to flag license risk before an audit does it for you.
Snapshot & backup hygiene
Aging snapshots and inconsistent tools status pulled from vSnapshot and vTools, with a cleanup order of priority.
Health & drift
vHost and vCluster tabs checked for firmware/driver drift and misconfigured HA/DRS settings.
