How to get list of Virtual Machines with RDM PowerCLI

Today we had a requirement to know all virtual machines with RDM LUN mapped .So we can plan the carefully move that machine to another ESXi hots .I found a PowerCLI script that gave me good information about Virtual machines mapped with RDM LUNs. Source link

I got the below result .It show all VM and there connected RDM with LUN ID and HDD Details.

LUNID

 
$vcenter = "name-of-your-vcenter-server-here"
$outputFile = "c:\temp\All-RDMs-" + (get-date -Format yyyy-MM-dd-HHmm) + ".csv"

"Connecting vCenter servers ..."
Connect-VIServer $vcenter -AllLinked

$report = @()
$luns = @{}

"Getting VM(s). Be patient, this can take up to an hour ..."

$vms = Get-VM | Get-View
("Got " + $vms.Count + " VMs ...")

foreach($vm in $vms) {
     ("Processing VM " + $vm.Name + " ...")
     $ctl = $null
     $esx = $null
     write-host -NoNewLine "   Scanning VM's devices for RDMs ..."
     foreach($dev in $vm.Config.Hardware.Device){
          if(($dev.gettype()).Name -eq "VirtualDisk"){
               if(($dev.Backing.CompatibilityMode -eq "physicalMode") -or ($dev.Backing.CompatibilityMode -eq "virtualMode")){
                    if ($ctl -eq $null) {
                       " Found at least one ..."
                       "   Getting VM's SCSI controllers ..."
                       $ctl = Get-ScsiController -VM ($vm).Name

                        $esx = (Get-View $vm.Runtime.Host).Name
