What is vpxdHostName?
This object holds the name of the ESX/ESXi host referenced in a vpxdTrap notification sent by VirtualCenter when an entity status change occurs. An admin uses it to identify which physical host in the vSphere environment the status change pertains to. For example, this field might read 'esx-host12.corp.local', letting an admin quickly locate the affected host in vCenter.
