Looks like he has some VM named something to to with replication.
 - 
So because of THAT doing some kind of potential replication on the backend we need to look for running VM's elsewhere first.

Yeah he has failover setup - well, his predecessor did. He saw log entries or something that showed if failed earlier

@wirestyle22 open another instance of the client to each host and verify what is running where.
 - 
@Dashrender Yes that is correct

Why not just use the vSphere web client?
Sure he might have to do a https://IP address:9443/vsphere-client to get there.

I am definitely interested in any education you are willing to offer but I think we are actually almost finished with this currently. Are you willing to sit with me for literally any amount of time tomorrow? I am a very eager learner.

He is offering to make sure you are able to recover everything correctly.

@Dashrender unsure of the IP of that host. It has nothing running on it typically, but I can just assume that.
