We've started to use the VMDR appliance to do backup of some virtual machine to test how it work and now it seems that we cannot move some of the VM we've backed up with VMDR appliance.
The behavious is that when we try to do a storage vmotion vmware say that the machine has "virtual disk in link-cloned mode that prevent migration".
Checking in the datastore for those VM I've found some xxxxxx-0000x.vmdk and xxxxxx-0000x-ctl.vmdk files.
I've tested a "cold" migration of the disks but it seems that VMWARE cannot migrate the storage of those VM in any way.
Someone know if there's a way to remove those "linked clone" vmdk and recompress all in one VMDK file?
I don't even see them as snapshot to delete.
Thanks to anyone that can help Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
