IP not injecting into VM after deployed via vRA

[Shaun90]

Hi

Anything I'm missing?

Are you using a customization spec? Are you using vRA network profiles? How have you configured your blueprint? There is lots of information you have not included.

I'm using network profiles

What information do you need regarding how the blueprint was created?

[daphnissov]

Could you please answer the other questions I asked.

Are you using a customization spec?

No I'm not using any customization specifications.

Are you using vRA network profiles?

Yes, I have created a external network profile and specified the information

How have you configured your blueprint?

I have created a normal vSphere machine linked a clone, and attached the external network to it in the canvas (this is for testing purpose).

In the network tab of the VM, I have added the network profile that was created.

Please advise if more info is needed?

Your problem likely lies in the absence of a customization spec. You must use one configured in vCenter in order to have static IP addresses assigned.
