Hi,
I just tried playing with vm-support and esxtop replay today and all went to plan up until I tried to replay the data.
I did
vm-support -p -i 3 -d 60 -w .
on a datastore with loads of space.
It created my tgz file with i untared/unzipped
which in turn created my directory of all files
I then ran the ./reconstruct.sh
which went away and did it's thing as far as I can tell, it certainly took a while
I then did
esxtop -R .
and it says sorry, I;m having to type rather than cut and paste this so I have paraphrased..
vsicache_init failed to open ./hungvm/vsi/vsi0
and no, there isn't a hungvm dir or any vsi.0 files in the directory structure of my untarred support bundle... I googled and it seems this is the result of NOT running reconnstruct, but I did... :-( any ideas on what I am doing wrong? This is vsphere 5.1
thanks
Bill
