Mike

Thank you. I was missing the record in vcl.resource table. 
For ESXi 4.1 kickstart I had to change sourcepath value in vcl.os from esxi4.1 
to esxi41 for id=38. xCAT2.pm can only get esxi4. (misses part after .)
I also had to create couple symlinks for xCAT2.pm to find image folder, but 
it's working now.

Thank you.
