Hello,
For out test environment we have a need to deploy a large number of Windows
7 VMs with customer software installed, which we run for a few days and
destroy before the next build. I have been trying for a little over a week
now to automate this process as much as possible via Ansible; I am able to
deploy n clones of a template snapshot with no trouble, but I'm having
trouble with the post-clone configurations - we need each VM to have a
unique machine name, and would ideally like to make some other
modifications that would normally be performed using the Customization
Specification Manager in the vSphere Web Client, but per the vsphere_guest
documentation it doesn't seem that is currently possible ('No guest
customization changes to hardware such as CPU, RAM, NICs or Disks can be
applied when launching from template.').
Is there a way to perform the customization that I'm missing? If not, is
that feature on the roadmap for vsphere_guest? I suspect I'm not the only
one that would find it extremely useful. :)
Thanks,
Daniel Carl
