Replication job leaves multiple open snapshots on target host. -
Description
Replication job leaves multiple open snapshots on target hosts. When an attempt is made to delete (i.e. consolidate) the open snapshots, the vCenter or Host machine returns the error <unable to remove file xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx as it is locked>. Thus, snapshots keep building up on the VMFS, but can never be deleted. Powering-off the VM has no effect, nor does vMotioning the VM to another host.
