Question about "clone_from_vm" #204

Closed freebeasty1801 closed 1 year ago

freebeasty1801 commented 1 year ago

Hi Jonathan,

short question :

I want to use a VM called "vm_template". It has been shutdown and I want to use this VM from which to clone.

It is located at : /datastore1/DHCP - VM Template/

So I thought I have to use this instruction in main.tf: clone_from_vm = "/datastore1/DHCP - VM Template"

But it ends up in an error message by ovftool and exit status code 127.

So what's wrong ?

Thanks in advance, Raphael

issue was caused by faulty installation of "ofvtool".

It's now working and line is: clone_from_vm = "vm_template"

Just the name of the VM
