Monitor progress of snapshot deletion

When deleting (comitting) a snaphot in Virtual Center, it times out after 15 minutes. To follow the progress, log into to the service console and navigate to the folder where the .vmdk files are located. Run the following command:

watch ”ls –oghut –-full-time *.vmdk”

This way, you can see when the snapshot file is removed.
