    Hello together,

    Is there a VMware or third party product on the market where we can track the changes in vCenter.

    In fact we would like to know if a vCenter Administrator change the memory on VM A from 2GB to 4GB or to some other

    changes on the VM. We need to know the value before and after.

    best regards, Sven

    anything that happens is already logged in vCenter.  You can check the vCenter logs (vpxd) or look at the Tasks & Events Tab.  Beyond that you can also redirect alerts via SNMP.

    Hi

    In vCenter we see only

    Reconfigured virtual machine
    info
    12.06.2012 15:17:27
    Reconfigure virtual machine
    %VMname%
    %Username%

    If I search the vpxd log for the VMname I can't find anything.

    We need more detailed information, like...

    %Date%, %Username%,%VMname%, Change Memory allocation from 2GB to 4GB.

    Or may you can help me to found these information in vcenter.

    best regards, Sven
