After delete some snapshots can't boot

Hi to all,

I'm new here and I try to do as well as I can...

I have an ESX 3.5.0 with a virtual machine called "Inventari", this machine have and Ubuntu 9.04 inside and 4 snapshots:

1. after clean install
2. after install apache and mysql
3. after dev a little bit
4. day to day use

This morning I tried to remove the 4 snapshots using "Delete All" option on Snapshot Manager, but after a while, (when I returns to VI) i see the VM stopped with some errors messages. It don't start again with the error:

Cannot open the disk '/vmfs/volumes/xxxxxxxx/Inventari/Inventari-000001.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

Reason: The parent virtual disk has been modified since the child was created

I read (and re-read): http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1004232 and http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&externalId=1007969

But nothing works, I can only start the VM in the initial state, losing all changes made the last 3 months (stored in the snapshots).

The Snapshot 2 and 3 disappeared????!!!!

The parent vmdk file looks ok...

[root@esx4 Inventari]# cat Inventari.vmdk

# Disk DescriptorFile

version=1

CID=0c919b74

parentCID=ffffffff

createType="vmfs"

# Extent description

# The Disk Data Base

#DDB

ddb.virtualHWVersion = "4"

ddb.uuid = "60 00 C2 9d e0 69 6b c4-c4 d2 aa 8a 09 80 d1 75"

ddb.geometry.cylinders = "2610"

ddb.geometry.heads = "255"

ddb.geometry.sectors = "63"

ddb.adapterType = "lsilogic"

ddb.toolsVersion = "7302"

But no the childs...

[root@esx4 Inventari]# cat Inventari-000001.vmdk

# Disk DescriptorFile

CID=61909e84

The 01 vmdk snapshot file parentCID (61909e84) is the same as own CID (61909e84) ?!?!?!? Why parentFileNameHint point to Inventari-000004.vmdk instead of Inventari-flat.vmdk ?!?!?!

[root@esx4 Inventari]# cat Inventari-000004.vmdk

# Disk DescriptorFile

parentCID=2d769fc4

Why parentFileNameHint points to Inventari.vmdk instead of Inventari-000001.vmdk?!?!?

I tried the following (O.S. says filesystem is corrupt, but I can access it and see that is in initial state, just after finish O.S. installation):

[root@esx4 Inventari]# cat Inventari.vmdk

# Disk DescriptorFile

version=1

CID=0c919b74

parentCID=ffffffff

createType="vmfs"

# Extent description

ddb.geometry.heads = "255"

ddb.geometry.sectors = "63"

ddb.adapterType = "lsilogic"

ddb.toolsVersion = "7302"

[root@esx4 Inventari]# cat Inventari-000001.vmdk

And that (O.S. boots well, but in initial state, O.S. Installation):

[root@esx4 Inventari]# cat Inventari.vmdk

# Disk DescriptorFile

version=1

CID=0c919b74

parentCID=ffffffff

createType="vmfs"

# Extent description

ddb.virtualHWVersion = "4"

ddb.uuid = "60 00 C2 9d e0 69 6b c4-c4 d2 aa 8a 09 80 d1 75"

ddb.geometry.cylinders = "2610"

ddb.geometry.heads = "255"

ddb.geometry.sectors = "63"

ddb.adapterType = "lsilogic"

ddb.toolsVersion = "7302"

[root@esx4 Inventari]# cat Inventari-000001.vmdk

No luck!!!

Anyone have ideas???

Thank's in advance!
