Vm without any snaps can't make a snap (Resolved)

What logfile do i look in to see what's happening here, the vmware*.log files in the vm directory don't show anything?

Thanks!

Turned out to be an old vmsd file in the directory.

vmkernel, hostd, and messages from under /var/logs on the host (not sure off hand if you can get these with rcli, but with vima that's more likely)

On the client the logs are stored in the program directory for the VIC.
