Hello!
we had a problem with our backup-software. There have been created checkpoints every day but haven't deleted after the backup.
I merged the avhdx files until only a vhdx-disk has been left with the following powershell command:
merge-vhd -Path FS1_F6BECDB6-FE79-4A43-A550-7F5FD563A062.avhdx -DestinationPath FS1_FFA1D4D5-033F-4E3C-ACB4-222CBFBCE14D.avhdx
This works all find. Then I chanced the disks at the fail-over-manager from the avhdx-files to the vhdx.files. The server now runs without any problems.
BUT!! in the Hyper-V-manager the old checkpoint are still visble and I'm not able to delete them with the following message:
The operation failed because the file was not found.
That message is write - all the avhdx-files have been deleted.
How do I manage to delete these old - no longer existing - checkpoints? As long as they exist the backup-software will not create new ones and we don't have a backup :(
I hope someone can help me to solve this problem.
Thank you in advance
Michael
