Hello Andy, We are using the VCL 2.1 that is currently out with the GSX viewer 1.9 the same as NC state is currently using. I am not current able to create images, or update current images. I can check out images just fine, but the creation or modify options all result in the same type of errors.
And for your other question, I wanted to know, did you still want me to install VMware vSphere Perl SDK? StateEst/Act TimeTotal Timeconfirming image exists(22)0:04/0:070:07starting load process(40)0:06/ 0:240:31transferring image files to host server(27)4:15/0:150:46 failed: cloning base image failed I am still getting the same Image Clone Error When I go to create an image or update an images, I see the system create a new folder at /nfs/images/vmware/virtualmachines/10547vmguest-50 But it's empty and nothing ever gets loaded into it. We have mapped our NFS mounts with the /nfs/images/vmware/virtualmachines/10547vmguest-50 going to /virtualmachines/ that goes to the same directory and both show the same current images that are working.
