I had the opportunity to present my first VMworld breakout session at this years conference in Las Vegas. Below are the videos of the demos provided during the session, as well as links to the tools discussed. Please do not hesitate to contact me for further information!

Session Description 


Based on his highly popular VMUG session, Paul Woodward Jr. (@ExploreVM) will review some of the tools he's used in his career to assess the health and troubleshoot issues with VMware environments. Paul will provide demonstrations and real world examples on how these tools have helped him solve problems that plague every VMware admin. And the best part, these tools are free!
