Yes you can use the vmware-cmd command to remove them all, to remove a specific one see the below post...

What VMware product are you using?

vmware-cmd can only be used with ESX for snapshots, you can use vmrun with VMware Server or Workstation.

VMWare ESX Server 3.0.1

I do ВМ backup through vcmMounter on SMB share. If backup process interrupts, at new attempt of backup creation stands out " Error: Backup snapshot already exists. " According to me it is necessary to provide this situation (to remove interrupted backup) in the script.

P.S.

I am sorry for my English
