I have a VM in 5.1 that has triggered a high-cpu alarm occasionally over the last few days. I'd like to go back in time and see when this started. Is there any way to do that? Tried searching the log files with little luck.

Do you have vCenter Server, you can look in the tasks and events?

Yes, I have that licensed. Entering the VM name, that appears to only go back 1 day.

Nice! I hadn't used PoweCLI before and wasn't even sure before now if it was a client package or not. That did the trick.
Much appreciated!

Hi,
Looked through the log file entries for this VM from the events.csv file and didn't find any triggered alarm information. Is there another file I should be looking through?
Thanks!
