Trying to Consolidate Disk or delete snap shots to be able to convert VMware to Hyper V. Have already done this with a different VM on the same Esxi Host and worked correctly.
Getting error:
Failed - Unable to access file since it is locked
Errors: An error occurred while consolidating disks: One of the disks in this virtual machine is already in use by a virtual machine or by a snapshot.
&
Remove all the snapshots associated with this virtual machine
Failed - A general system error occurred: vim.fault.GenericVmConfigFault
What I've tried so far:
Restarting ESXI host, services, making a copy of the VM and attempting on the copy. I can create a new Snapshot fine, but I am not able to delete the newly created snapshot. I do not have another Esxi Host to try migrating too. I do not have access to the former backup software the company used. The VM does work fine and I do have a backup. Unable to recreate the VM as it has Windows Server 2003 with customized software and limited support.
Software being used to convert: 5nine Vmware to Hyperv, errors saying their are snapshots on the VM.
Any help would be appreciated.
Ended up using Vmware converter to VMWARE to VMWARE converter and seemed to flatten all snapshots.
As a first step, please provide some details:
