I have several VMs which where deleted in vCenter before standard dismount procedure in TDP for VE 7.1, so they stuck on datamovers. Does anyone knows the exact command to dismount and remove these VMs from TDP? Thank you in advance. Pressing Dismount from web console completes with the following errors: VM 'ftp_temp': Preparing...
