Actually I believe you can use Storage vMotion with a RDM. I will not move the data of course but it will update the VMDK pointer file

Hi, I have VM with three RDM attached to it. VM is stored in Datastore as &quot;New Virtual Machine&quot; which is not as per the corporate standard. I would like to rename this folder to the &quot;VM name&quot;. Can you please suggest the solution.

How to rename VM Folder

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
