Unable to open disk "XXX.VMDK" or one of the snapshot disks on which it depends. The system cannot find the file specified.

This problem occurs when the virtual machine is opened, because the association between the disk is faulty, to its corresponding file to modify the disk configuration file.

Specific methods:

1, through the CRT connected to the ESXi machine, and then into the corresponding storage. CD VMFS/VOLUMES/AAA (storage for virtual machines);

2, LS View the file inside, you will see XXX.VMX, XXX-FLAT.VMDK go in with VI to edit

VI XXX.VMDK

# Disk Descriptorfile

Version=1

Encoding= "UTF-8"

Cid=fffffffe

Parentcid=ffffffff

Isnativesnapshot= "No"

# Extent Description

Ddb.adaptertype = "Lsilogic"

Ddb.geometry.cylinders = "1044"

Ddb.geometry.heads = "255"

Ddb.geometry.sectors = "63"

Ddb.longcontentid = "7a81a191b1f24d697cc8954bfffffffe"

ddb.thinprovisioned = "1" (if the previous disk is a thin disk, leave it here, if not, comment or delete it.) It is recommended to change the value to 0)

Ddb.uuid = "C2 E7 BD AF 60-2A 1b F4 6c E6 38 01"

Ddb.virtualhwversion = "10"

3, and then save the exit.

4. Remove the virtual machine from the list (never choose to remove the virtual machine from disk ), and then add the virtual machine, and finally the virtual machine can be started successfully.
