![]() ![]() To begin this process and make things clean we will first remove (not the data) the VM from the VMware Infrastructure clients inventory list (right click on the VM and select Remove from Inventory). ![]() Normally, you could (and should) recreate a missing or corrupt VMX file by restoring it from a backup, but it could not work either.Īn easy way for recreating a VMX file is usually the usage of VMware Infrastructure Client (VIC), via vSphere Web Portal or via CLI/RCLI: you will recreate a new VM inside the new infrastructure and then you will re-add the VMDK (virtual disks) files to the new VM, or you could also point the new VM’s drives to the existing disk (VMDK) files of the server with the corrupt/missing VMX file. On a VMware ESX infrastructure (especially during VM migration between two not connected ESX) there could be a tedious scenario: once you have extracted a VM from the old ESX and imported to the new one you realize that the VM's VMX file is probably corrupted.
