Old Folders in C:\Backups\Replicas

Post by BHB3805 »

I have numerous folders with modify dates > 120 days in the C:\Backups\Replicas folder.
They all start with vm-****.
How can I determine if they are not associated with a current replica and can be removed?

You can connect via PowerCLI with your vCenter and run the following command:

Code: Select all

Get-VM | ft -Property Name,ID -AutoSize
This will give output and the ID field will be something like Virtualmachine-vm-XXX. These are the ones which are still in your inventory.

If you feel unsure about this you can always ask via our support.

Thank you. Didn't even think about that.
