Finding Orphaned VMDK Files - Best Method?

$

Hi guys,

 

Which would be the best and most uptodate method of finding orphaned files on datastores. I have used RVTools but not sure how accurate this is.

 

We are running vCenter Server 6.0.0.

 

Can you provide some insight i.e. free tools or methods which works for you / OR a script that might do the trick (I've tried a few older ones but they don't seem to work very well)

 

One other thing - my RVTools reports many zombie files and refers to these types of files - does anyone know more about these types of files and whether they can be deleted?

 

NameMessagevCenter UUID
*************-checkpoint-sesparse.vmdkPossibly a Zombie vmdk file! Please check.
*************-sesparse.vmdkPossibly a Zombie vmdk file! Please check.

 

Many thanks,

Travis
