Hi All,
Looking closely it looks like there is an issue when, the esx.pm picks all the
parameters to initiate a poweroff command on the VMguest using the VMware Perl
toolkit API
Please advise ...if my understanding below is right or wrong?

I believe when you are creating a base image, the vmguest name should be the
same as the name of the image you are creating it should be in a format like
vmwarewinxp-base7-v1. Note that the vm you are imaging should have this
name as well as the vmdk file. Your other problem with the hostname is
it makes sense why the code is looking for
vmguest name.
I will give this a try.
Thank you!!!
Amit

Hi Andy,
I followed through every step in esx.README and still not successful in
capturing an image:
I can SSH to the hypervisor and the VMhost through the management node with
the/etc/vcl/vcl.key etc etc ..everything else looks okay; below I also have the
query's that I used to create this

I ran into this as well using the free version of Esxi, I'm not sure what
version you are using. It has to do with the exit status returned from
Hi Ryan, you are great! I made quite a bit of progress with your suggestion.
I hope you can help me with this next step error: Seems like image creation was
successful but upon realod/poweron VMware perl toolkit looks for server '128'
instead of the full ip.
Something seems to be missing: Hope

Yes, the management node needs to be be able to SSH to the VM hosts before
attempting the image capture, or any other VM operations. Assuming password
authentication is still enabled
capture a try first.

Yes, the management node needs to be be able to SSH to the VM hosts before
attempting the image capture, or any other VM operations. Assuming password
authentication is still enabled on the VM hosts, you can run gen-node-key.sh
IP for each of them. I wouldn't try the VCL image capture process
