Is there a way to populate the Snapshot Manager with snapshots that are listed in the datastore but not under Manage Snapshots. Is there a way to either populate Manage Snapshots or using something like vmkfstools revert to the snapshot manually?
Long story short, I had a hardware failure and had to re-add the datastore to the Linux VM. I believe before the failure that I was using Portal-000003.vmdk but when I try to start the system with that datastore I get the following error: Failed to power on virtual machine Portal. File system specific implementation of LookupAndOpen[file] failed
When I try to using Portal.vmdk it boots up fine, but seems to be running code from 2015. When I look at the Datastore I have several vmdk files:
