Hello:
We are building a new Win10 1803 master image for our linked clone and full clone pools. We started with the linked clone pool. Everything is working good there. Next I cloned the master image VM from the linked clone pool, to another VM, and converted it to a template to use for the full clone pool. If I modify this VM in any way, such as adjust memory for the VM in vCenter or even boot up the VM, the result is a customization error when it tries to provision the full clones.
The only way it avoids this error is if I clone the master image VM from our linked clone pool directly to another VM, and don't touch it but simply convert it to a template. While this works, we need to modify the template slightly for the full clones. I've been trying to find a solution but so far no idea why this would come up when simply making a clone of a VM. I'm hoping others have seen this error and found a fix. Or, are you creating individual images for your linked and full clone pools? I was hoping to simply take a clone of it so that it's identical.
Thanks in advance for the help and feedback.
