Timing out when reverting VM Image from command line with VMRun.exe

Every time I try to revert Virtual Machines from the command line on my server, with the machine powered ON or OFF, the vmrun.exe hits the timeout after about 1.5 minutes. Is there a way to work around this? Other than vSphere PowerCLI. Has anyone else had this issue?

Answer

I’m assuming you mean reverting a snapshot? PowerCLI lets you do the operation synchronously or asynchronously. If the operation works via vCenter, but takes a long time, perhaps PowerCLI would help?
