iMacPro HD has unusual partitions on it. What is the cause? What is the effect? How to remove?

I noticed today that my primary drive Macintosh HD, has some unusual partitions on it. My computer had restarted after a crash a few days ago, but I did not notice this issue until today when looking for some files. Not sure what is going on and how to resolve this. I was running Parallels VM at the time, so is this somehow related to the VM being active at the time of the crash?

That is strange because if you had changed the name (or you cat did), then the Data drive would have also been changed to match.

The com.apple.os.update Snapshot is not strange. It is normal.


Does that name show up in the Finder?

Have you tried renaming it?
