Hey Guys, My reservations will always reload at the beginning of the reservation processes even if the vmguest is currently loaded with the desired image. Looking at the output from the vcld.log, it appears that the issue is with a file it can't find called currentimage.txt. Any ideas on how

Hey Guys, Our VCL pilot program just went semi-live with 2 universities using ldap, and 12 others using temporary local accounts (3 a piece: admin, faculty, student). One issue that I've put off, that now needs to be addressed, is the time it takes for a reservation to complete. Currently,

Thanks Jim, It turned out to be an issue with my dhcpd.conf file. Usually when I create a VCL instance I use eth0 as private and eth1 as public, which is not the case with my current system. As such I had the wrong mac addresses in the file. Not sure why the CentOS image worked with this
