Hyper-V snapshot problemSource: microsoft.public.virtualserver Sent: 12/03/2008 From: "Blake" <(email address - cut out)> Message:When I view the VM in the Hyper-V manager, it says I have no snapshots
When I choose 'settings' on the VM, it says I can't make changes because
there are snapshots active. And looking at the raw disks I see lots of
snapshot files.
How can I make Hyper-V 'see' the snapshots that are clearly there?

and re-import the VM to get the snaps registered properly (as I understand
things).
Hope this helps,

I am hoping when I power down the VM it will merge everything
Thanks for your insight

together (I HAD a snapshot, but had deleted it)
All is well
Thanks
