Hi to all,
I would appreciate help with following problem in vCloud Director environment we have.
Customer is asking for functionality to change password for default administrator in guest OS (in cases where end customers forgot password).
We were able to change administrator password using guest OS customization. It is same if we do that using vCloud Director GUI or from vRO worklow - behavior we experience is the same.
If we tick only "Enable guest customization" and "Auto generate password" (and untick "Change SID"), Power ON and force customization, password is changed but at every reboot cycle of VPS we see "VMware Image Customization in progress" screen. Beside that, we see in registry that sysprep was not finished, same like described here VMware Knowledge Base . Templates are created using correct operating system.
Here are settings which produce this behavior, like I sad, same is if we do that using vRO workflow.
Doe anyone saw this before? Changing registry on every provisioned VPS is not best option to solve this...
or
guestCustomizationSection.enabled = true;
guestCustomizationSection.adminPasswordEnabled = true;
guestCustomizationSection.changeSid = false;
guestCustomizationSection.adminPasswordAuto = true;
guestCustomizationSection.resetPasswordRequired = false;
guestCustomizationSection.adminAutoLogonEnabled = false;
guestCustomizationSection.adminAutoLogonCount = 0;
Environment consist of:
vCenter Server 6.0.0, 7037393
ESXi 6.0.0, 3825889
vCloud Director 8.2.0
I woul appreciate any help.
Thank you.

Many views, but no answer...
Anyone?
We get as well the same message when OS is booting but I believe it is only cosmetics. As I understand, the provisioning script starts and as there is nothing to do it exists but command prompt still pops up.
