Hi,

 

I have a very huge problem and I don’t know how to deal with it in the right way, i had some old server that been setup with weekly snapshots.

and we some hardware issue with the server that cause to some snapshot files accidentally deleted from datastore.

we be able to recover some of the vmdk files.

picture attached with files that can be find on the server.

we tried few steps to recover the machine (change vmdk on vm configure / create a new snapshot and delete all from snapshot manager)  - i able to turn it on with the flat vmdk, but that data there is a least 6 months ago.

i found some articles  about   consolidate a snapshot and fix snapshot chain but i didnt really understand how to go on with this,

what should i do? Is there any way to merge these files or extract files from them?
