Ubuntu 18.04 LTS - VMware esxi - gray console screen

Hello.
I have a problem. I cannot connect via noVNC to my VM - its stops at "Authentication OK".

I excluded the problem with noVNC and checked ESXi.

The problem is that even inside, from the console, I cannot connect to this VM.

I'm sending a screenshot in the attachment. I don't see any suspicious log entries.

Normally there is a preview of the machine

Why don't you have VMware Tools installed?

I thought it might be a problem.

But installing Tools didn't solve the problem.

In addition, the problem of automatically creating 10 same machines only occurs with a few. There is no schema here why this problem occurs.
