I installed the new beta 2 earlier this week. After some evil crash caused by the RTM build of your competitors application. Anyway I really like the Snapshot feature but is it possible to get a list of all the Snapshots or give them a name? And can I also remove all the snapshots earlier then the current or chosen snapshot?
Like I got these snapshots:
Windows XP Installation
Drivers
Apache
Delphi
I would like to remove everything but the Delphi snapshot, and make this the initial or base snapshot of the computer. After installing some more stuff like snapshots for:
Visual Studio
BuggyApp
I might want to go back to the earlier snapshot of Visual Studio because BuggyApp failed to install correctly. How can I go back to Visual Studio or to Delphi instead?
Unlike Workstation, Fusion only supports a single snapshot, so you won't be able to build a chain like this. On Workstation, you would use the Snapshot Manager to do all this.

Oh bummer! It would be a killer if it was supported... You can even hide it in some obscure console application or script if you want
Like Eric said named snapshots and/or a snapshot tree are not in the Fusion GUI but like many other features, it's all power under the hood. The consumer version is like a jet engine in a shiny roadster.
You can probably script a command line snapshot manager but without VIX that's a lot of undocumented manipulation. VMware is seeing the interest for Workstation features with every request like this.
Are their any resources about how to do that?

Changing your question slightly to "public, non-proprietary resources," the answer is none that I'm aware of.
