Populate Snapshot manager with missing snapshots or revert to one manually?

Hello,

 

Is there a way to populate the Snapshot Manager with snapshots that are listed in the datastore but not under Manage Snapshots.  Is there a way to either populate Manage Snapshots or using something like vmkfstools revert to the snapshot manually?

 

Long story short, I had a hardware failure and had to re-add the datastore to the Linux VM.  I believe before the failure that I was using Portal-000003.vmdk but when I try to start the system with that datastore I get the following error: Failed to power on virtual machine Portal. File system specific implementation of LookupAndOpen[file] failed

 

When I try to using Portal.vmdk it boots up fine, but seems to be running code from 2015.   When I look at the Datastore I have several vmdk files:

Any suggestions on what else I can do to revert back to the latest good snapshot?

 

Thanks.
