So, in the VM in Disk Manager, I have 5 drives... C, E, F,H, I. There used to be a G Drive. But it's gone.
In Hyper V , the properties of the VM has 6 drives attached. From the way they are named I really don't know which VHD file corresponds to which drive letter.. but one of these HDs is attached to the VM and the VM doesn't seem to know about it.
1 - Why the hell would a VM disk be removed? I am so angry right now that I can just explode. This is my SQL Server and now i'm missing all the DBs on the G Drive.
2 - I'm afraid to even touch the VM now cuz I have no idea what state it is.
I'm so fed up with this crappy software.
