Error: The guest operating system 'centos64guest' is not supported.

Hi,

Does anyone encountered this kind of error? Error: The guest operating system 'centos64guest' is not supported. This happens during Disaster Recovery, the centos 64bit guest OS never turn on after initiating the option 'change of IP address'. While my windows 2003 and 2008 R2 are in success.

Hi,

According to compatibility matrix, customization of CentOS VMs is not officially supported:

Hi Michael,

Thank you for the reply, do we have any chance for the work around?

I hope in the future VMWARE fix this in Centos.

"Customize IP settings during recovery" is not supported.
