well, as i see it, this is what i believe to be the problem: 1. the jenkins server and target start off with a channel (connection) 2. the channel is disconnected using: 2a. beforeDisconnect 2b. disonnect 2c. afterDisconnect 3. the vm is reverted to desired snapshot 4. the vm is powered on 5. waits for vmtools 6. islaunchsupported: launch 7. setChannel(in, out, tasklistener, channel.listener) 8.
