how to create multiple virtual machines?

[admin]

Hi,

i designed a workflow wich build a single virtual machine. In the beginning the user can choose the number of virtual machines to build. My workflow only runs one time and build one virtual machine. Is there a way to build multiple machines with generating a name (like vm0001, vm0002, vm0003)? is there any example of a workflow like this?

thanks!

What I do when I need the same thing as you want, I create a workflow that create the element I want.

Then, I create a "wrapper" workflow that create the parameters that are not always the same (in your case, the VM name). This wrapper call the first workflow n times. You can use the "Start Workflows in Parallel" workflow as a wrapper workflow.

take a look at the workflow here. I think it does what you want it to do.
