VM wont start after NAS disappeared from Storage...

[inproba]

Hallo,

As a good 'admin' i added a 2nd harddrive to my VM from the NFS share of my NAS.....

In hindsight this wasn't the best idea, but it happend.

After a power failure last week every thing rebooted just fine afterwards...

Now last thursday i rebooted the host and the NAS is gone from storage (webpage), and i was unable to start the VM

I SSH'd in and it is still available in /vfms/volumes/nas with all the files.

Offcourse i didn't consolidate my snapshots.. and i have two of those..

trying to recover files i downloaded all the files, moved them around, deleted, reuploaded all the fun stuff in crisis mode...
