Hi all,
A very annoying and frustrating issue is arising when View 5.2 configures a new Pool of linked-clones from a pre-existing main image and snapshot.
When Vsphere 5.1 gets to the point of cloning the images and running through the tasks and usually after it has restarted the VM once or twice already, the event status logs the following:
Task:Reconfigure virtual machine.....VM name.....Invalid configuration for device '0'.
Vsphere/vCenter then continually loops to reconfigure this device, but keeps on returning the above error and if left will run for 24 hours.
I have checked the following:
1. Made sure master VM and snapshot has no CD-Drive or Floppy present
2. Tested the snapshot and main image with other pools and linked-clone tasks results in no errors
I have checked the linked-clone pool desktop settings and there are no strange devices listed or anything that I can see that suggests the wrong thing.
Help!
Best,
Athemiya
