I have troubles with setting proper path to the my vm in virtualHost.Open()

if I check structure in my Vmware vSphere web client it looks like this:

Unfortunately on github I didn't find solution. Can anyone show me how this path should look like?

I think it's actually nothing to do with the server/machine type path, it should be something like "[storage] myDirectory/myTemplate.vmx" (eg. [dbprotect-1] ddoub-red/ddoub-red.vmx from https://github.com/dblock/remoteinstall/blob/master/Samples/ESXSample.config).

Thanks for answer but testing during the weekend I still can not connect. I read your link but there is nothing about which node should be put into "[storage]". I tried server name and then rest of the path with "/". Datacenter etc. And I assume that if my VM is ABC the vmx file will be also ABC.vmx ( I dont have acces to check file name on disk)

I also found that not unknow reason for me I'm getting "the function timed out" in "RegisteredVirtualMachines".Maybe this is a problem?
