What if I have multiple disks in the Windows machine? Do I have to take the snapshot of each disk separately? I have two disks in my server C and D. I want to perform update. So I need to know how to take snapshots of both disks and how to revert snapshot in this case.
Normally D is just pagefile and get created when you create VM, however it is not recommended to have data in D drive, yes for C drive you need to take snapshot of it and if any E or F drive for example you might have take individually for those disks.
Hi take snapshot of any important disk individually and if you want to revert back, you can create disk from that snapshot and attach to the VM, can be OS disk or data disk, azure snapshot is slightly different from vmware snapshot@@omarraja9017
My only question regarding this process is if I wanted to restore a DC and it have the same exact name, will it allow that? And if not, after I recreate the new vm and delete the bad one, can I update the name of the new vm then to show the same name?
You did a great work my brother.
Thanks

Thanks. Then how can we have the additional disks placed in the Snapshot reverted VM?

Do you have any python code that preform that? I'm facing some issues trying to create a vm from a snapshot using python

Yes it’s possible and without any issues you can do that.
