Snapshots - not really there

Hell all, We have recently built a vsphere  ESXi 6.0.0 build 4192238 environment.

Using the vmclient, we have noticed that every vm shows a snapshot is present, but when we look at those vm's  we do not see any snapshots.

When using the Web client snapshot manager doesn't show snaps

is there a setting or something on the local client that fixes this. Seems like a bug

any help is appreciated

Where/how do you see these snapshots?

The Snapshot Manager is not necessarily a reliable indicator. If a snapshot deletion fails, the snapshot won't show up in the Snapshot Manager anymore, although it still exists. In such cases you will often see a "Consolidation needed" warning for the affected VMs.
