Unable to remove snapshot

All,

I use vRanger with VCB to backup my guests. During one of the VCB snapshots, the snapshotting process timed out - at least that's what VC says in "Tasks & Events". If I go into snapshot manager for the guest, it shows that the snapshot was created. The problem is that I can not delete the snapshot. Tasks & Events shows the following error: Operation Failed because another task is in progress. I do not see any other tasks in Tasks & Events. How can I tell what task is running and stop it so I can delete the snapshot? I'm using VC2.02 and ESX 3.02 (latest patches)

Hiya,

I've found rebooting the VCB server (if you can) usually frees up such snapshots
