VMware esx. 4.1 safely delete the only snapshot from SnapShot Manger
Posted on 2012-12-31
Hi
I have some VMs on my ESXi and noticed that on of them have very old snapshot. Just to be 100% sure can I delete the snapshot file in snapshot manager? The one which is above "You are here".
The snaphot is named "Ennen asetusten tallentamista" (in english: before saving the settings).
Please see attached PritScreen.

Do you want to keep the data retained in the snap, or revert your VM back to the point in time the snapshot was taken?
If you want to retain the data, in Snapshot Manager select 'Delete All'. This will "commit" all the data in the Snapshot to the parent disk. Upon completion of committing all that data to the parent, the snapshot file is then deleted.

And since your snapshots are old, it will more than likely take a while for the snapshots to be removed. The progress might show at 95% for quite a while (many minutes to many hours). Just let it run (be patient) until completion....
