I've been trying to run through your script a half dozen times after a few false starts with configuration options on my end. But now that I think I have them all sorted out, a few times in a row I get to line 710 and it fails, which causes the rest of the script to error out.

In the log file, I'm not seeing any errors:

Any thoughts on why it's not connected?

The NSX-T Edge OVA is probably "blocked" by Windows. Right click on the file and click unblock and it should work
