Help Please - Recreate VM with old data

[Kanky]

Hi Guys,

I had a hardware problem and as a result had to reinstall FreeNas on a new boot drive. I was able to import all the volumes etc with out any data loss.

I have the datastore for the VM machine, but I can not see a way to create a vm from the existing data. Can anybody point me in the correct direction or tell me what I can do to extract the data from the old VM's?

Much appreciated!

Hi Kanky,

Unfortunately, we will need more info... Was that storage shared with an hypervisor over iSCSI and used as a datastorage ? What version of FreeNAS was used on the original system ? What version is now running ? Was the VM built with ioCage ? bhyve ? warden ?

From only what you wrote, we can not do much...

Good luck in your recovery,
