Sreec,

 

Using this link you provided:

http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1028042

How long do you estimate it would take to complete?  The VM has three hard disks, two on one datastore (40 and 60gig) and one on another datastore (200gig).  Being it's an essential server, I can take it down for tonight and tomorrow but need it up by Monday morning.

 

Thank you for all your help.  :-)

instead of trying to delete all 255 snaps, you could just clone it to a new vm.

 

if you dont have vcenter, then use vmware converter to do a v2v migration.

turn off ssl to make it go faster

this way you arent affecting your actual VM, so if something worries you, you have a way to back out by just turning on the 1st vm rather than the clone/conversion.
