I got the following log

I create another VM and I used the disks of the original vm. The new vm startup correctly but one of the disks is as if was the first time that I started the original vm. Any ideas that can help me with that.

Hi Javrob,

How about removing VM from the inventory (not from the disk!!!) and then navigating to the datastore, VM locaction, clicking on .vmx file and registering it again.

Please rate if helpful,

Alex

[javrob]

I already did that. The disk where is the c partition is up to date but the other disk is not up to date. It status is as the first time set up.

It's complaint bout this :

You could try to create a new snapshot and delete it or else, use vConverter to help you consolidate broken snapshot.

vcbMC-1.0.6 Beta

vcbMC-1.0.7 Lite

Can you clear up the snapshots on this VM? One error was refering to a missing snapshot. Do you have a good backup of the problem disk?

[javrob]

I don't have snapshots in the VM. When I using snapshot manager I can't see sanpshots. For complete my bad luck, the recently backup is damage. I have only one backup but is old.

[Chamon]

What are you using to back up the VM? is it VCB or vRanger?

[javrob]

Acronis

[javrob]

Any other ideas?

[Chamon]

Have you tried the consolidator idea? It will copy the disk so I would

give that a try.

You seam to have a snapshot issue. That is why I asked what you were using for back ups.
