Re: VM Allocation and Consumption Report

Try it like this

New-VIProperty-Name'FolderPath'-ObjectType'VirtualMachine'-Value {
  param($vm)

  $path=@()
  $excludeFolders="Datacenters","vm"
  $parent=$vm.ExtensionData
  while($parent.Parent){
    $parent=Get-View$parent.Parent
    if($excludeFolders-notcontains$parent.Name){
      $path+=$parent.Name
    }
  }
  [string]::Join('/',$path[($path.Count-1)..0])
} -Force-BasedOnExtensionProperty'Parent'|Out-Null

Get-VM|Group-ObjectFolderPath|%{
  New-ObjectPSObject-Property@{
    Consumer=$_.Name
    "No. of Virtual Machines"=$_.Group.Count
    "Allocated CPU"=$_.Group|Measure-Object-PropertyNumCPU-Sum|Select-ExpandPropertySum
    "Allocated Memory"=$_.Group|Measure-Object-PropertyMemoryGB-Sum|Select-ExpandPropertySum
    "Disk Provisioned"=$_.Group|Measure-Object-PropertyProvisionedSpaceGB-Sum|Select-ExpandPropertySum
  }
}

It uses a VIProperty to get the blue folderpath, and then groups the VM on this property.
