## Examples

::: example
### Example 1. Looking for VMware Resource Pools

This example shows how to look for resource pools on the `esx01.tech.local` ESXi host.

```powershell
$server = Get-VBRServer -Name "esx01.tech.local"
Find-VBRResourcePool -Server $server
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBRServer`](get-vbrserver.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$server` variable.
2. Run the `Find-VBRResourcePool` cmdlet. Set the `$server` variable as the `Server` parameter value.
