+Simple rbvmomi wrapper to manage VMWare ESX hosts.
The goal of the library is to keep things simple so vCenter support isn't planned.
If you want a full VMWare vSphere API ruby implementation have a look at https://github.com/rlane/rbvmomi

Run 'bundler install' to install required deps.
Run rspec from the base dir. By default, the tests try to connect to an ESX host named esx-test-host with user root and no password. Edit spec/spec_helper.rb to fit your needs.
