I received a vm that was allegedly created by us and sent to another office and now they have copied the entire vm directory to a USB drive and sent it back to us for maintenance. I copied the files to my vmfs and when I browse to it through virtual center and right click and 'add to inventory' it shows up in the list as (invalid). I have never seen this before and I am wondering if it is a version issue. I am certain that we upgraded from 3.0.2 to 3.5 since this vm was created. I thought I need to upgrade the vm but can's seem to find an option for that.
Am I even close?
I was told that it was created by us on our current system but I am almost certain that it had to be created on 3.0.2 prior to the 3.5 upgrade.
Please help.
Thanks
I am also very proactive about awarding points.
