Hi all,
I have the vSphere 5.5 esxi desktop client and esxi on an HP server.
Probably made a bit of a mess of this VM so would appreciate some advice. Loaded vmware ESXi a few years ago and it pretty much runs without too much intervention.
I created a VM with a (thick) 750Gb hard disk and turns out I need some disk space that so decided to shrink that VM. As the approved way of doing this is to p2v the disk then create a new VM I did this, by downloading the latest p2v converter.
I have deleted the original VM to make some space.
When I added the .vmx file to the inventory it now appears as:
Unknown (invalid)
How can I get this vm back up and running? Do I need to upgrade to v6.0
many thanks
