I'm not sure how this would be accomplished.... Am I supposed to be
running backup software (rsync, etc?) on my ESX nodes now so I can capture
these VM config files? How would I ever know what changed the VM files
when? I'm sure if I called up VMWare and said "HEY YOU GUYS YOU BROKE THIS
BY CHANGING THESE FILES" and then when they asked how I figured it out I
told them I installed software that is definitely unsupported on their
ESXi server to track it that they would certainly tell me to go pound sand.
Working in a black box environment is never fun. :(
