VMware have included the old and trustworthy performance monitor VMKUSAGE in VC 2.5 U4.
This time the monotor has been added to VC as a plugin.
To get access to the new plugin you have to follow this knowledge base article.
If you like me upgraded your VC without stopping the Webaccess service first you have to follow this KB article before the plugin will work.

Today a one of my customers encountered an error when trying to revert to an snapshot.
They recived the following error:
“error encountered trying to restore cpu state from file /vmfs/volumes/…./xxxxx.vmsn”

To correct the problem you have to complete the following steps:
If you still want a snapshot of the VM in it’s current state
This solution has to be applied to all VM’s with snapshots taken while the VM was powered on.
A fellow member in the Danish Usergroup has created a very simple backup script for ESX and ESXi using PowerShell and VCB.
I like that it’s small and simple.
Keep up the good work….
