http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2012964

Purpose

This article provides a side-by-side comparison of performing virtual machine-related tasks using different VMware utilities and command line methods.

Resolution

In these examples:

vcenter
is your vCenter Server hostname
esxhost
is your ESX/ESXi hostname
datastore
is the display name of your datastore
path_to_vmx_on_datastore
is the path to the virtual machine's vmx file relative to the datastore on which it resides
vm_name
is the display name of a virtual machine
path_to_vmx_file
is the full path to a virtual machine's vmx file
snapshot_name
is the name given to a virtual machine snapshot
guest_admin_user
is a user account with administrative access within a virtual machine's guest OS
guest_admin_password
is the password for the account noted by
guest_admin_user
