"ps" or "vps" command to show running vms in vmware esxi shell

vps.sh

#!/bin/sh

echo "ID      STATE    NAME"
for vm in `vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms | awk '{ print $1 }' | grep -v Vmid`;
do
	echo -ne "${vm}\t"
	vim-cmd vmsvc/get.summary ${vm} | egrep 'name = |powerState ' | sed 's/[,"]//g; s/poweredOn/ON/; s/poweredOff/OFF/ ;s/suspended/SUSP/' | awk 1 ORS=' '  | awk '{ print $3, "\t", $6}'
done

Many useful functions are available from esxcli and vim-cmd in the esxi shell, but i was unable to find a way to generate
a concise list of registered VMs and their power state, so I did this.

getting formatting working properly was a little tricky due to the limitations of the esxi
shell busybox environment.  

awk ORS=' ' was handy, credit to https://stackoverflow.com/a/14853319/908796

Sample output (slightly massaged to show up properly in the gist viewer)

[root@esxi01:~] vps
ID   STATE   NAME
19   SUSP    vm1
21   ON      vm2
22   OFF     vm3
