Jeg har en ESXi som jeg skal tage backup af og i den forbindelse har jeg lavet et lille VIX (vmrun) script som laver det praktiske. Det kører super.

Problemet er at når jeg laver et restore af enVM'erne (nogle med snapshots) så registerer VM'en sig fint, men jeg kan ikke se snapshottene.
Jeg kan se i VMX filen at den pejer på snapshot VMDK'en.

Findes der en måde hvorpå jeg kan regisrerer en VM og se snapshot historikken?

Hej,

Tag et snapshot og slet den igen så dukker historikken op. (incl. Tabte VCB backups og broken Svmotions)

Hey,
Hmmmm - det virkede desværre ikke.
Jeg har ikke en VC foran kan det være problemet?

Tak for alle svar.

Jeg har nu testet og det er så nemt.

1. tilføj VM til inventory og så er alle snapshots der igen :-)

TOTALT NEMT

Ja manuel registering.

Hvis jeg havde den orginale VM liggende i inventory og registerede den restorede VM så kom snapshots ikke med, men hvis jeg afregisterede VM'en eller ominstallerede ESXi og så kom snapshots historikken.
