Hi, I just inherited someone else's problem. I'm working with a small ESXi 4.1 server that recently suffered a failed power supply or something else that won't allow it to power on. There are two Windows Server VMs on this device, I can remove the HDD, all the VMs and the ESXi 4.1 installation were stored on a single disk(I know, right?). I'm wondering if there is there is a preferred method to extract the VM data from the VMFS partition. Possibly using VM Workstation on Windows and mounting the drive as an external device. Or maybe there's another method. I've researched this and tried an old open source mounting tool to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.
