There were a VM which has been spreads across multiple folder . One folder were holding .flat file and delta file. While other was holding all the snapshot.
We have to shift this VM to a different host in different site. We created the same folder structure at different site but still all the snapshot were lost. I started looking at each vmdk files (Every snapshot has its own VMDK to refer to) and corrected the file location /vmfs/volumes/<file_system_UUID>.
After fixing I was still not able to see my all snapshot under snapshot manager. Finally I had a look at .vmsd file .It has few pointers to old datastore
"snapshot0.disk0.fileName =". After I fix I was able to see all the snapshot.
