vmx error

Hi,

I have the following error when performing a scan after attaching a baseline?

Why did the following occur? It look like hung. How can power on the machine without shutting down the esx server?

Thanks

Hello,

Check out http://www.itworld.com/security/54258/more-thoughts-forensics as a way to kill the VM. THere is a script within the comments that will work as well. Note that it will not leave a .vswp file around but that is a different subject.
