I have vmware auto-deploy implemented using vcenter installed in WS2008. However I needed to change the software depot image which is currently Esxi5.0.0-469512. I needed upgrading to Esxi5.1.0-799733
So from vmware cli I used add-esxsoftwareimage followed by new-deployrule and set-deployruleset: Now I can see Esxi5.1.0-799733 is a working rule by sending get-deployruleset.
However when I boot client from this server, it still boots to old image 5.0.0 which is no longer working rule. I am confused here about what additional I needed take?
I also went as far as going complete removing the deploy-rule for Esxi-5.0.0 (remove-deployrule with -delete switch), however client is still booting to Esxi5.0.0. Can someone give an advice on this? Thanks!
