I have admin level access in the vsphere environment but I keep getting the
permissions denied error below. I posted the debug error logging message
below and a snippet of my code. One thing I do have in my vars, the "
vsphere_cluster" in vsphere 6.7 has spaces in its name. Can that be
causing the error ....
vsphere-iso: output will be in this color.
