I've been tinkering with PowerShell for years, so it was natural to start banging on PowerCLI to make my life easier administering my VMware clusters.
I've been using and growing the following script for the past 4 months. It seems to be making my ESXi patching and maintenance a little less laborious chore than the prior click-storms.
Enjoy!

.SYNOPSIS
Script to vMotion VMs off one ESXi host to do maintenance - non-DRS user.
.DESCRIPTION
I use this script to vMotion VMs off one ESXi host to another ESXi host (A to B),
perform some maintenance on the host, then migrate the VMs back to host (B to A).
Optional progress bar, unmounting of ISO files (sometimes causes issues),
and maintenance mode for standard vs. Virtual SAN hosts.
