Provisioned machines have same name

I am using vmware view 4.6 and when I setup an automatic pool with full machines I am getting multiple machines with the same name.  I am using vmwares built in customizations to change the name on the machine and join to the domain.  Any help would be appeciated.

There are some composer log files under C:\windows\temp that may contain some uselful information.

This is because the Custom Spec that you have used does not have the settings "User Virtual machine Name as VM host name"

Edit the custom spec, and change this value to "User Virtual machine name"

Now create pools using this custom spec.

Since this is a full clone deployment, I don't think that the composer logs might help

I agree.  I must have misread because I thought we were talking about linked clone pools.
