failed to open (The parent virtual disk has been modified since the child was created

[MauroBonder]

Hi,

I have the follow problem.

One virtual machine

windows with two disks , the first with 30GB (Guest OS) and the second

with the data 150GB,I created about

12 snapshots, but the machine locked up and no more.

There locked

in suspend mode.

I tested the following KB

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=100784...

AND

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=100796...,

but without success, I got the MSG " failed to open (The parent virtual

disk has been modified since the child was created" when i execute

vmkfstools - i.

the following information attached to each disc.

The

key would restore the disk 150GB

In attach follow VMX of virtual

machine and CID and parentCID of all disks.

I need some more informations:

... but the machine locked up and no more.

Can you please explain this?

What happened exactly? What did you do prior to this?

I need a file list of all the files in the VM's folder showing the names, sizes and time stamps.

In the vmx file I saw the base disks are attached to the VM? Did you try to boot the VM with the base disks attached?

And finally, do you have a current backup?

Hi

your info is a bit strange - why did you add blank files ?

such as

disk1-00011_VMDK.txt and

disk2-00014_VMDK.txt ?

I assume that the vmx is the misconfigured one ?

Anyway - I send edited vmdks and an edited vmx assuming I can reconstruct the most probable snapshot-chain.

If you have any older vmware.logs please send them so that I can doublecheck
