Hi,

i failed a migration with storage vmotion. The configuration file gone to the new location but the vmdk stayed to the old. I tried to repare that after searching on the web with creating end erasing snapshot, modify the vmx file....

Now i always have my vm-flat.vmdk but i would like to create a new vm using this vmdk. How can i do ?

I don't why storage vmotion failed. Certain person say that migrate storage from LUN to Local is not possible and other say that's OK.

Can you help in creating my new vm ?
