Delete the -CTK.VMDK files in the virtual machine folder.

Make sure there are no snapshot files (.delta.vmdk) present in the virtual machine folder.

Access the folder on the datastore that contains the virtual machine (right click on the datastore and then on РІР‚СљBrowse DatastoreРІР‚Сњ).

Disable CBT for individual virtual disks connected to the virtual machine by setting the scsix: x.ctkEnabled value for each virtual disk connected to FALSE (where scsix: x is the SCSI controller and SCSI device ID of the virtual disk).

Disable CBT for the virtual machine by setting the ctkEnabled value to FALSE.

Click on the Options tab (VM Options), select the General section and then click on Configuration Parameters -Р’В» РІР‚СљEdit configurationРІР‚Сњ.

Right-click on the virtual machine and click Edit Settings.

If there are snapshots, consolidate them.

Right-click on the virtual machine, click on Manage Snapshots.

Right-click on the virtual machine and click on Power Off.

To reset CBT on a vSphere virtual machine, follow the following steps:

Determine if there are any delta files left or snapshots that VMware vSphere cannot detect.

Note: before performing this procedure, you must make sure that the virtual machine is not running on a snapshot.Р”Р‡or more information, see the related VMware articles:

Additionally, the backup procedures performed using CBT allows us to haveР’В multiple recovery points of a VM, based on the number of backupsР’В we have configured. This increases performance and optimizes the space required.

This function is called Changed Block Tracking (CBT) and allows each backup procedure to download only those parts of the VM disk that have actually been modified since the last backup. Virtual machines running on ESXi hosts can keep track of disk sectors that have changed. In this brief tutorial we show the simple steps to reset the Changed Block Tracking (CBT) for vSphere virtual machines.Р”В¬BT is a fundamental parameter withing a VMware ESXi virtual machine, since it allows, when enabled, us to perform incremental and differential backups of VMware virtual machines.
