Hello all.
I have Googled the issue, but was unable to solve it with the suggestions.
A bit of info:
I have 2 VMware ESXi version 6.0.0 build 3620759
Between the 2 hosts i have a replication (Veeam), and during a replica, the server ran out of space.
I freed up som space, and got things working.
Afterwards my Veeam replics and backup of VM's on that server started failing.
I removed the VMware snapshots of the running hosts, and ran a consolidation.
Trying to make a snapshot, i get the error:
"Detected an invalid snapshot configuration"
Afterwards i tried, among theese things:
- Reboot a VM.
- Shutdown and start a VM.
- Shutdown and moving the vmsd file to a new location.
- Snapshot, same error.
- Consolidating the VM, same error.
- With the VM running, moving te vmsd file to a new location and make a new snapshot. Same error.
The content of the vmsd file is:
.encoding = "UTF-8"
snapshot.lastUID = "1914"
So i found this article on VMware:
VMware Knowledge Basehttps://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1026043
I'm a bit stuck as i cant reboot the server, and im not sure if i need to reboot. But i logged in using SSH, and i found the Vmid.
The reload command dident work.
What i'm seeking, is any other solutions, whare i dont have to reboot.
And it is ESXi version 6, and it doesent seem to have the same tech Support mode.
Or maby a confirmation that i'm on the right path.
