templates gone

[seangar]

We just upgraded to the latest VC and our templates are missing. When I brwse the datastore I see the folders and VMDK's but cannot highlight and "Add to Inventory". The selection is greyed out.

What must I do to add the templates back in to our farm.

TIA

Can you try using the command line:

vmware-cmd -s register vmfs/volume/vmfslabel/VMName/VMName.vmx

FYI: You cannot register .vmdk file extension try .vmx or .vmtx instead.

since you are talking templates the extension should be .vmtx both in stefan's command and browasing the datastore -
