Long story short. I forgot I had taken a snapshot on a Win Server 2016 VM in esxi. I removed the snapshot forgetting that there is a 6TB disk attached. The VM is relatively low when it comes to IO changes. Just a small file server. It's still is taking forever to remove. 6% in the past 20 hours. It's now at 65%. The first 50% was slow but tolerable. It must have been consolidating the disk on the NVME drive. The 6TB is on a LSI 9266 R1 array. Every VM is shutdown.
In hindsight, I should have done a V2V.
By my estimate, it should be done by Friday and I can boot it back up.
Anyone else run into this problem?
