VMware Inventory Script
=======================
Retrieve information about virtual machines from a vCenter server or
standalone ESX host. When `group_by=false` (in the INI file), host systems
are also returned in addition to VMs.
This script will attempt to read configuration from an INI file with the same
base filename if present, or `vmware.ini` if not. It is possible to create
symlinks to the inventory script to support multiple configurations, e.g.:
* `vmware.py` (this script)
* `vmware.ini` (default configuration, will be read by `vmware.py`)
* `vmware_test.py` (symlink to `vmware.py`)
* `vmware_test.ini` (test configuration, will be read by `vmware_test.py`)
* `vmware_other.py` (symlink to `vmware.py`, will read `vmware.ini` since no
`vmware_other.ini` exists)
The path to an INI file may also be specified via the `VMWARE_INI` environment
variable, in which case the filename matching rules above will not apply.
Host and authentication parameters may be specified via the `VMWARE_HOST`,
`VMWARE_USER` and `VMWARE_PASSWORD` environment variables; these options will
take precedence over options present in the INI file. An INI file is not
required if these options are specified using environment variables.
