what an owesome job with those scripts.

could you please tell me what changes do I need to make to allow the script that deletes snapshots, to delete all snapshots of a specific VM or something like Delete Snapshot subtree?

I'd really appreciate your help with this.

Hi Your post was useful. But, i face problem in low disk space. Since, deletion of snapshot doesnt delete the differencing disks(.avhd) and they are not merged due to active running of VM. Is there a way to script turn off and after merge completes turn on the VM on deletion of snapshot?

I had a question,

I have only one VM (not running) and when I use the query: "Select * from Msvm_ComputerSystem", it gives back the result set containing details of only the host computer system and NOT the virtual machine present. Any idea why this is happening?

I don't suppose you could post the VBScript version of these since power shell does not run on server core.

Thanks,
