Duplicate folders being created on the datastore with host caching enabled

[nzorn]

Upgraded to the following this weekend:
View Connection Server 5.1.2-928164
View Composer 3.0.0-691993
vCenter 5.1.0b-947939
ESXi 5.1.0a-838463

After the upgrade I installed the latest VM tools, View Agent 5.1.2-928164, and the Teradici audio driver on my snapshot.  I have not upgraded the machine hardware version.

I enabled host caching on my pool, and the pool is set to refresh immediately on logoff.  When I shutdown or logoff of the View session I see an error in vCenter like this one:

Reconfigure virtual machine VMPool-3 Cannot complete the operation because the file or folder [VM_POOL_LUN-12] VMPool-3/VMPool-3-check-point.vmdk already exists

Then it creates a new folder with an _1 on the datastore because of this:
VMPool-3 (original)
VMPool-3_1 (duplicate)

Once I turn off host caching the problem does not occur.

Has anyone seen this issue?  I currently have a ticket opened with VMware.

Built a test pool with the latest machine hardware version and having the same problem.

Going to test with a BETA View Agent: VMware-viewagent-x86_64-5.1.2-944109

Same problem with the BETA View Agent.

Any news?

I have the same problem

Not a word from VMware, maybe it's fixed with 5.2.0 though, but I have not upgraded yet.

Here is my SR# 13284697302

I upgraded one of my sites to View 5.3 w/ vCSA 5.5 and ESXi 5.5 and this problem no longer exists.
