Composer replica and OS VM auto deleted

HI

   I build a composer Pool to deliver Win7 ...Because I only has a 1TB HD...so I set replica/OS/Persistent disk to the same disk....

then I moditor provisioning status from VI Client....I find replica VM created well, then do " Clone virtual Machine(Replica)", then "Add Tag", then auto delete replica and linked-clone VM

I try to 3 times...get the same result...if I have some step or action misconfigured ?

thanks!!

How are you activating the desktops? MAK or KMS?

Not sure if you even read my replies, but if View cannot activate the machine it will be removed unless you follow the procedure linked to above.
