I have had a vm fail and now I need access to its storage drive, is there a way to mount its storage drive to a new vm or browse and recover data?

Assuming your environment runs AHV?

If so please see this thread https://next.nutanix.com/how-it-works-22/relocate-virtual-disk-from-one-vm-to-another-in-ahv-27574

Please refer to this acli manual

vm.disk_create Attaches a new disk drive to a VM please the manual for options and syntax.

Let us know how it goes, please.
