vCenter showing errors when performing instantiateVappTemplate, VCD does not report them.

When performing several instantiateVappTemplate() calls concurrently (spawning threads and instantiating 50 vApps) vCenter will show errors that the "Mac address is already in use." On the VCD API, I receive no errors and it appears that the process does complete. That is, it appears that VCD handles the exception and corrects for them.

#1 - Is this normal

#2 - Can I depend on VCD always accounting for this error

#3 - Is there a way to avoid this apparently spurrious error in vCenter.

Using latest vCenter, ESXi, and VCD: 5.u1, 1.5.1, etc.

I am available for consulting: http://www.tsslink.com/ My focus is automation and programming with VMware.
