hey guys

have you ever had vms dissappear or say server innaccessible
and you find out the server vm is gone from the data store?
we have esxi 3.5 and I know I made some clones and they are gone from the data store? is this normal? and how is this happening. I have not been on the system?

my clones are either show (innaccessible) or gone from my inventory and datastore?

    How are you making "clones", if you don't have a vCenter server? Are you just copying the files in the datastore browser to another location?
    IT guy since 12/00

    Recent: 11/2019 - RHCSA (RHEL 7); 2/2019 - Updated VCP to 6.5 (just a few days before VMware discontinued the re-cert policy...)
    Working on: RHCE/Ansible
    Future: Probably continued Red Hat Immersion, Possibly VCAP Design, or maybe a completely different path. Depends on job demands...
