we had a disk failure on our VM host (VMWare ESXI 5.1).
We've managed to get some of the data off but some of the file we couldn't get as it kept on causing the disk to crash.
I have file like MyServer-000001.vmdk
and MyServer-000002.vmdk
and so on but I don't have the MyServer.vmdk
or MyServer-flat.vmdk
files.
I am assuming the MyServer-0000001.vmdk
files are snapshots disks. Is there a way I can tell the VM to use these VMDK's files instead as when I select it and try to power on the server it says that it couldn't find the disk image or the required snapshots.
If possible we really need to be able to recover this VM.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
