Hey All,
So it's been a few weeks - we verified that the script was picking up snapshots that were new, and showing them with inaccurate dates in the log.
We had one instance where it showed a snapshot that was over a year old, but it picked it up randomly one day even though the script had run every night for a week... Turns out it was a new snapshot, and so we're positive now that the mechanic the script is using to get the date and judge whether or not it's 2 weeks old or not is unreliable.
Timezone wise, I'm not sure where to look for differences?? The comparison date is based on the local machine? So I'd be theoretically looking for differences between target vSphere servers and the machine running the script? Only question about that is: assuming a few hours to even a days time difference, it wouldn't be that dramatic if we were a day behind deleting a two week old snapshot. I do know that no machines in our environment are more than their timezones differences apart.
Looking forward to continue the quest to solve this most pesky of scripts!
Kindest Regards,
Alan
