I currently have exported an OVA of certain systems so I have a complete backup. After certain changes were made ( additional users added to LDAP for example), I created a snapshot. Would I be able to copy this snapshot to the location where my OVA is? So that I may import an OVA, and then revert to the snapshot? I am having a hard time finding a straight forward answer online or via VMwares website. Could I take the OVA, and whatever the latest snapshot of, copy to separate storage location, and then import the OVA/revert to snapshot?
I am on an entire Linux backbone and will be migrating copies/backups via command-line (bash). Not sure if that helps but gives an idea of my environment. Thank you.
