OK, so it was simply that I needed to input a Maximum for the "Storage (GB)" in the Build Information tab, leaving it blank is not an option if you want users to be able to request addtional volumes for VMs.
Thanks for everyones help!

Re: How to enable publish button when deploying an application?
Thanks a lot!
I have tried to validate the solution, but I failed in importing users for LDAP to validate.
I think you might be right, thanks again!

Re: Change Window in vCAC Service
AFAIK, its just an indication. May be you can schedule work-flows to do the maintenance tasks.

Re: Bulk deploy vm's with customization via csv import
Hi,
I was trying to follow your script after fix it with the "-useculture".
But I found that you can not set the hostname on the guest os in linux. How do you fix it?

Re: Acer Veriton M6630g NIC INTEL i217-lm
Hi,
I managed to get esxi booting correctly. Maybe you can too ... by using this method.
start the ESXi installer again, and when it first starts to load its installation program hit shift-O ('oh' ... not zero)
At the bottom of the screen this presents you with ">runweasel"
Leave this as is, but type SPACE "formatwithmbr"
so it should look like ">runweasel formatwithmbr" then hit enter, and the installation should proceed. Reboot the pc, and you SHOULD now be able to boot from the hard disc that ESXI is installed on.
good luck!

Re: HGFS not working on Kali Linux
You're wright!
When Kali was upgrade to kernel 3.14 this fix had stop working.
I've changed from vmware-tools to open-vm-tools, still not working.
It's a shame to we that bought a license of vmware workstation 9 to be unable to use shared folders - HGFS (Host-Guest File System).
The only solution for now is to upgrade to vmware workstation 10. This is bad for us, good for vmware.
Of course, another solution is to change your machine to VirtualBox. Shared folders are working fine.

Re: Server 2012 R2 Customization Specification not working
I had this issue too. I do scripted deployments and I solved this by doing the following (simplified):
1) Deploy the VM using New-VM
2) Power it on using Start-VM
3) Immediately after set the network adapter to be connected (this has to be done whilst powered on), using Get-VM -Name $computername | Get-NetworkAdapter | Set-NetworkAdapter -Connected:$true -StartConnected:$true
Hope this helps.

ESXI-Host bietet keine dauerhafte Speicherung
Aktuell Situation:
Hardware Server:
HP ProLiant DL 380p G8
ILO 4
Virtuelle Software Server:
VMWare Host ESXI 5.1
Hier wurden 5 virtuelle Server aufgesetzt.
Aktuelle Problem:
Unser Serverumgebung lief aktuell ohne weitere Probleme, wir mußten lediglich vor ein paar
Tagen den Hardware Server neu starten. Anschließen ist das folgende Problem aufgetreten. Siehe Screenshot im Anhang.
Vor dem Neustart gabe es nur zwei Änderungen an der Umgebung, von denen wir jedoch ausgehen das sie kein Auslöser für das
aktuelle Problem darstellen.
1. Neue Fritzbox 7490 wurde im LAN in Betrieb genommen.
2. Neue SAS HDD wurde im Server aufgenommen.
1. Wird diese Problem von VMWare ausgelöst?
2. Wird das Problem von HP-Server ILO 4 ausgelöste?
3. Kann das Problem ohne Datenverlust behoben werden?

Re: Ubuntu 14.04 guest customization
Does anybody have an update on this?
I am experiencing the exact issue. The symlink for the dhcp3 directory worked and the customization wizards configures the IP Address and hostname. However, DNS is still not configured.
I have also noticed that the VM's network settings do not appear to work on first boot either. I cannot ping or SSH to the server and it has no outbound connectivity. This only occurs when using the customization wizard.
If I have to deploy a 14.04 server, I have to logon to the console. Manually edit the resolv.conf base file and then reboot in order for the server to work as expected. For one and two servers, this is acceptable, but for a few hundred it does not work.

Re: Bulk deploy vm's with customization via csv import
That should be possible through the OSCustomizationSpec and the NamingScheme parameter in there.
Do you have that in your OSCustomizationSpec, and do you update the OSCustomizationSpec for each VM you deploy ?

Guest operations manager / file Manager returns a "no route to host" error when attempting to copy from RHEL guest to the vCO appliance
While trying to use the guest script manager package I discovered that for RHEL6 guests we have an issue copying the file back from the guest to vCO. Consistently they all fail in the "Copy file from guest to vCO" workflow, and in testing the error is reproducible.
Specifically, the final step in that workflow - result = fileManager.downloadFile(vcoPath, ftInfo) - generates the error "No route to host (Workflow:Copy file from guest to vCO / Scriptable task (item1)#10)"
Anyone know what might be causing this?

Did you install a NTFS-read/write package ?
Such packages do as you are experiencing.

Problem with TaskList

I have this code.
But the tasklist is empty every time - I can get vm's and vDC and so on and so forth, but the tasklist for my organization is empty.
Am I looking the wrong place?

Re: CentOS Linux VMware Tools Can't Cancel Install Can't vMotion
My solution for this was installing eject command on Centos and apply :
#eject /dev/cdrom
Also if this doesn't help cancel Vmware tools installation throw esxi host.
Hope this help !
