Hi, I'm having a problem with the Guest customization with RCU. I can clone the VMs fine (flexclone elements, etc), but the customization fails to take. I've tried Sysprep and standard customisation profiles. These profiles do work fine when I clone a VM through the usual Vsphere cloning wizard.
I have tried both RCU 3.0 and 3.1 (VSC 2.0)
Platform setup:
Vcenter 4.0 U2 (I have also reproduced with 4.0 U1)
ESXi 4.0 U2 (I have not attempted with previous versions)
Vcenter is running on Windows 2008 R2 (64bit)
VMFS volumes are in use on FC.
Cloned machine: Windows XP or Windows 2003 32-bit (tried both to ensure its not the image)
There are no errors in the kamino.log file, other than a delay and retry on the customisation, which may be normal. The other logs I get are related to vmount2.exe which seem to amount to the fact that it is being used. The VPXD logs (attached) show that it has attempted to fail back to vmount due to not being able to detect vmware tools for the VM.
I've attached snippets of the vpxd log files that relate to customisation - one for a singe machine cloned with RCU and another by using clone in the traditional vpshere way.
Pretty stumped on this; all the hard bits work!
