Can you please let me know what tools or means or how to check below.
Check the health of all Hosts and VM objects in vCenter. Are there any active alarms in vCenter?
Are all vCenter plug-ins functioning properly?
If any Host Hardware issues? Alarms, bad memory, power supply or capacity issues?
if any resource bottlenecks? Memory, CPU, Disk, Network?
is the load properly distributed?
if running out of resources anywhere? LUNs with low disk space, etc.
Check for Firmware updates on Host hardware- can we use update manager
Check for ESX Patches
Check for VM Patches
Check VMware Tools version
Run scripts to identify the existence of VMs with snapshots and follow up to see if they are still needed.
Have you schmoozed with your Storage Admins lately? A good idea since you cannot get very far without them.
