SCVMM "Incomplete VM Configuration"

In System Center Virtual Machine Manager, a particular VM is powered off and was showing the error:
"Incomplete VM Configuration"

I didn't find any way to fix this, so I copied the whole VM into the VMM Library and created a template from it. I then deleted the VM from VMM. When this was done, I deployed the template, hoping that the VM would be set up correctly in VMM again. I was then planning to add the VM to the domain again and configure it when the deployment was done.

However, two and a half hour after the deployment of this template (that was created using the original VM), the same error message appeared again:
"Incomplete VM Configuration"

I really don't know where to look for what I need to know to fix this error.

I tried that now. The VM deployes correctly, but when powering up the VM, the power on operation fails with the error that the files are corrupted:
"The file or directory is corrupted or unreadable (0x80070570)"

I am guessing this VM has seen its days. I will be requesting to restore it from backup.

Yes, the systemdisk is OK, but the datadisk (disk number two) is corrupted. So thats the explanation. Can't mount disk number two.

We didn't really get to a solution, but all suggestions were good. Thanks for the comments! :)
Virtualization
Virtualization

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.
