"P2V-FirstSnapshot" is not deleted after the BMR P2V process has completed

Problem

After performing a BMR P2V "Physical to virtual machine conversion" of a client, a snapshot named "P2V-FirstSnapshot" is left attached to the VM.

 

Cause

When running P2V, at the end of the conversion, a "P2V-Firstsnapshot" snapshot is taken, but not removed.
This allows an admin to revert to this snapshot should something go wrong after drivers have been applied to the VM.

 

Solution

This snapshot must be manually removed after every "P2V" operation.
