To prevent this issue from occurring, remove all snapshots before copying, moving, or performing a vMotion on the virtual machine.
To resolve this issue when the virtual machine has been copied/moved while snapshots were in use, clone the affected disk.
From the ESX/ESXi host command-line, navigate to the folder where the virtual machine vmdk files reside and run this command to recreate the <vmname>.vmdk file from the snapshot file:
# vmkfstools -i <vmname>-<latest_snapshot>.vmdk <vmname>.vmdk
For example, for VM test1 with 1 snapshot, run the command:
# vmkfstools -i test1-00001.vmdk test1.vmdk
