Testing Instant Clones

We just updated our dev environment from 6.2.4, to 7.3.1, and were interested in trying ICs. I took my typical linked clone parent, cloned it, and removed/re-installed the View agent, this time picking the Instant Clone option. I shut it down, snapped it, created a new IC pool, all went well it seemed, until deployment where we keep getting this:

I've checked the service account rights in AD as well as vCenter. I THINK I covered all the bases, but, seems I might be missing something. Has anyone come across this?

We're using vSan. vCenter/ESXi environment is 6.0 Update 3.

Are you using a custom vcenter role to assign permissions?  If so there are further requirements for Instant clones

Privileges Required for the vCenter Server User
