Free Centralized ESXi Management console for multiple ESXi servers
I have recently been looking for a new way to manage my ESXi servers in the datacenter as I was starting to get annoyed on having a ton of VI Clients open on my management box. So after some Googling I found this awesome little management utility that lets you basically do everything you need to do when managing your ESXi servers. The utility is called VM Explorer, Trilead is the application manufacture that is building and supporting the product. They have 2 versions of the software -- a free version and a commerical version. There are some limitations of the free version, but for smaller ESXi deployments it fits your needs. You can only have 5 ESXi servers configured to manage at a time, and the scheduling engine is disabled.
The thing that I like most about this utility is that you can move VM's from one peice of storage to another very easily. You can also do basic VM management tasks through the interface such as power on and power off the VM.
My suggestion if you are managing multiple ESXi servers, this is a must have utility in your toolbox
