Removing snapshots from a tree

Post by Pierroda »

Hello,

I read almost twenty subjects about removing snapshots, but I'm still not able to do what I want to.

I've got a tree of snapshots looking like that

- Snapshot 1
- - Test
- - Good one
- - - Good one
- - - - Good one
- - - - - Good one
- - - - - - Actual State (modified)

I want to remove all the snapshots, but not the one that I'm using. Indeed, my principal .vdi file is about 10Go, but the latest access to this was in June ; all the .vdi files from the snapshots are about 14Go.

I understand that it will be easy for "Test", but what about the other ones ?

Does someone know how to do that ?

Thanks a lot,

Pierre.

So, if I understand well how VirtualBox works with Snapshots, I can remove any snapshot I want, without having any problem with "child" snapshots. Is it correct ?
