Hi Vishy,

I'll look more through the fog code, but this seems like it might be a
configuration issue in your template. Do you see additional information
in the vSphere activity logs?

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for the reply. It was indeed an issue with the
template. I had to install the vmware tools and then recreate the template
post which which it works fine.

Many Thanks!
