Hi Christian I'm not 100% sure - but you might need to change the policy on the vSwitch in VMWare and set it to allow 'MAC Address Changes' see - https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.security.doc/GUID-942BD3AA-731B-4A05-8196-66F2B4BF1ACB.html

I think it is a vmware problem we will dig into this now. Thanks, Christian -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Udo Müller [mailto:i...@cs-ol.de] Gesendet: Dienstag, 20.

Do younhave the possibility to debug the communcation received by the agent? It receives a json from the manager with all the information how to create the machine. The mac should be included.
