SolutionOther then that, /vmfs/volumes/* contains symbolic links to the datastores, and you could just list everything in there, and again count the number of directories. ESX creates a directory for every allocated guest.

Re: VMWare server issues
Enterprise VMware is usually GSX or ESX. Sometimes VMware Server.
I don't have much experience with GSX or VMware server, but I would assume the "one process per guest" rule would still apply if Linux was the Host.

Re: VMWare server issues
On ESX, you can use vmware-cmd -l to list all your VM's. I'd check to see if the same command is avaialble on your VMware Server and GSX systems.

Re: VMWare server issues
I probably have to open another thread, but the whole reason for this excersise was to find out if VMware ESX is more reliable that VMware server. since on our server the guest node keeps crashing.
