"The guest operations agent could not be contacted" when trying to acces to guest just after provisonning

I have to install some softwares after the provisionning of my VMs.

Just after provisionning once the vm is on, i run the workflow "copy file from vco to guest" to copy my scripts file which works perfectly, i then run the "run a program on guest workflow" which fails with the error "The guest operations agent could not be contacted".

I know i get this error only when there is no session opened on the vm (i don't want to manually open a session).

So is it the no opened session which triggers that error or am i doing something wrong ?

Is there a way to open a session on guest via vCO ?

Thank you in advance

PS : VMware tools are installed and running
