VeeamON 2024 - Use Code "COMMUNITY10" for 10% Off!
Hey Michael, great article!I’d like to share a humble solution that saved my day some times where the snapshot mess was so huge that was impossible to merge them.In this scenario there was a maintenance window, so I could perform this offline. I just created extra disks for the VM, using the same size and then used Clonezilla to clone the old disks to the fresh disks. All the attention in the world is necessary to be sure you’re cloning the right way (or say bye-bye to the data).After cloning is done, I remove all the disks and re-attach the new ones on the same position where the original disks were. The VM itself remains the same, with the tags, uuid, etc.I have used it both on vSphere and Hyper-V environments.
