Post Defragmenting disks
Is it necessary to degragment disks or does esx manage that?

using VM workstation, I used contig and also used defragment command within VM options to manage disks.

curious, how to manage them here. any CLI commands to automate it, by running crons?

ESXi doesn't provide anything to defragment disks. You can use something within the VM to do it from the guest OS perspective.
