Products

• VMware vSphere ESXi

Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:

• There are no snapshots on virtual machine(s).
• Virtual machines show Revert to current snapshot (right-click on the virtual machine > Snapshot > Revert to current snapshot) enabled in vSphere Client when connected to the vCenter Server 6.0.
• When viewing the Snapshot Manager (right-click on the virtual machine > Snapshot > Snapshot Manager) for the virtual machine in the vSphere Client, there are no snapshots present.
• Directly logging into the ESXi host using the vSphere Client shows the Revert to current snapshot grayed out.
• Creating and deleting a snapshot does not resolve this issue.
• In the vSphere Web Client Revert to current snapshot appears grayed out.
