[Bug 1293435] [NEW] VMware: rescue with image that is not linked clone leaves rescue vmdk in the instance folder

 

Public bug reported:

A rescue of an image that is not linked clone will leave the rescue image disk in the original VM folder. The disk will not be cleaned up properly.
This leads to a number of problems:
1. usage of unnecessary disk space
2. additional rescues for the same VM may fail
