HI,
The system show my VM was running without any snapshots but in the Data store there are multiple delta files like vmsd,-delta.vmdk files exist.
is there any way to get rid of these delta file files. PFA screenshot
Thanks

Create another snapshot and then use the "Delete All" option to remove all snapshots.
Does that get rid of the files?
Hello,
So from Snapshot manager, there are no snapshots displayed, correct?
When you Right click the VM > Edit Settings and go to the hard disk, is this hard disk running on base vmdk (VM.vmdk) or a snapshot vmdk (VM-00000x.vmdk) ?

this should be issue with the consolidation , if you click on the vm and check the summary , you might see the Consolidation warning ,
either click on "cosolidate" from the gui , or use cli to remove the snapshot file
Create another snapshot and then use the "Delete All" option to remove all snapshots.
Does that get rid of the files?
Hi cjscol,
I tried recreating the new snapshot and deleting all ,but still all the Delta files exists. Also, after creating new snapshot, an error for vm consolidation was showing.
I did the VM consolidation, but it didn't fixed the issue.
thanks

Can you answer SavkoorSuhas question?
Edit the settings of the VM and for each Hard Disk what does it say in the Disk File box on the right hand side? You can click in the box and scroll left and right if the name is too long to fit in it.
Hello,
for logging in to the web client, are you using https://vcenter-hostname:9443 ? Once I was entering http:// instead of https:// and nothing displayed for me. Can you capture a screenshot of this error for us? Also the newest "Thick" vSphere client should allow you to edit higher VM Versions.
Alstar,
Thanks, I was able to connect.
