Hi Gijsbert, When you stop a VM on VMware, it is not removed from Inventory. It shows as stopped (not-running) in vSphere. Timothy Lothering Solutions Architect Managed Services

Is this the same on VMWare.. meaning that when I stop an Instance it gets removed from the vCenter inventory, if so; is there any way to avoid this behaviour and to keep the VM in the vCenter environment? Thanks in advance!
