This article explains how to manually revert a replica to its base disks, allow it to be remapped to a replication job and used as a seed when the replica's snapshot files have become corrupt.
An old or orphaned Snapshot file is linked to the VM configuration (vmx), and a new Snapshot is trying to use that file name.
Please be aware that as an alternative to performing the steps below, you may first attempt to clone the faulty replica within VMware; if it succeeds, map the Replication job to the clone of the replica.
