Hey,

is it possible to look for existing Snapshots of VMs using the vsphere module or in any other way?

Thanks for your help!  
Michael

Hello @Michael_Fischer, sorry I didn't get your question. Do you mean using vsphere metricbeat module to get all VM snapshots? Currently, we support three metricsets for vsphere: datastore, host, virtualmachine: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/master/metricbeat-module-vsphere.html#\_metricsets\_42](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/master/metricbeat-module-vsphere.html#_metricsets_42)
