Hi,
I'm testing out a new VMware View 5.1 installation and having issues with the customization process
I have created a Windows XP Gold Image with the following relevant specifications
Windows XP Service Pack 3
Applied all Windows Updates
Disabled Windows Firewall
VMXnet 3 Virtual Adapter
Installed the KB944043
Installed the VMware Agent 5.1.1 (after the KB944043 applied)
I'm using a Virtual Distributed switch with ephemeral ports in vsphere 5.1
I release the IP and shutdown the VM
Take a snapshot of the VM named "TEST"
In View Manager I created a pool "TEST" using Linked Clones, point it at my snapshot "TEST" and use a sysprep customisation I created not quickprep
This is what happens
1. View Composer clones the VM to a replica
2. View Composer adds the PC names into Active Directory
3. after the VM's are all created they boot up, sysprep runs and reseals and reboots
4. I see a "VMware customizing in process"
5. Windows XP Mini-Setup runs
6. VM reboots
then it loops from number 4 through to 6 over and over
any one seen this one and got some tips?
Cheers.
