Deploy VM from template without saving the guest os costumization script

Dear VMware Community

Since we upgraded our vCenter from 6.0 to 6.5, we have a issue with template deployment.

With vCenter 6.0 we were able to start deploying a VM from template (manually in the vSphere Webclient) and change the guest os customization settings just for that deployment on the go.

Since the update to 6.5, we cannot choose anymore if we want to use a costumization script or just costumize it for that deployment.

We always have to use or create a costumization script. The option is just not there anymore.

vCenter Version: 6.5.0 Build 7515524

Does anyone else have that issue? Am I missing something?

Thanks for any feedback and regards

Jonas

You'll need to define a customization spec and then call that in your deployment process. You can't adjust it on the fly.
