VirtualMachineAwaitingInventory Table

VirtualMachineAwatingInventory stores information for virtual machines which are known from the VM Host but which do not yet have inventory.

Note: To cater for multi-tenant mode, this table may contain data for multiple tenants. Access requires that the database TenantID has been set in the SQL Server connection context information. That setting filters an underlying table to produce this view of data for the single, selected tenant.
