Power on and force recustomization

Hi,

Running vCO (the version bundled with vCenter 5.1) and vCloud 5.1 and trying to instansiate a vApp and then force recustomization using the package in this thread http://communities.vmware.com/thread/393562?start=0&tstart=0

I'm looping through all VMs in an app, in my test app there is only one, the machine powers on and the workflow finishes without errors, but in vCloud I get this error:

"Guest customization failed on this virtual machine. Error is : 'Required parameter missing. ReconfigToken not found'"

Anyone have any ideas on why?

Thanks Joerg!

Andreas - are you using the "Deploy a virtual machine" workflow from the Workflow Library to do this, or did you write your own custom script to do it??

Please manually run "Deploy a virtual machine" and be sure to select "Yes" for the "Force customization" option and see if that works... this workflow is the preferred method for doing this operation as you can actually get support on it Smiley Wink

Run this a few times with different options until you get a combination that works to your liking, then incorporate it into your custom workflow.
