Hi,

I'm trying to create a pipeline that involves cloning a VM in vSphere (5.5) 
and have a couple of issues - not sure if its what I'm doing or a bug...
My vSphere environment is vCenter Appliance 5.5 + one esxi 5.5 host with 
local datastore and no resource pools defined.
Jenkins 2.53,  vSphere Plugin 2.15


1 - Using the code below, my job runs and does successfully create the 
cloned VM's in vSphere, but the build step fails  (This is inside a 
parallel - I am cloning 2 vm's, only one shown here)

            vSphere buildStep: [$class: 'Clone', 
                clone: "${rhelVer}_Dev_Template", 
                cluster: "Lab", 
                datastore: "esx1-local-v1", 
                linkedClone: false, 
                powerOn: false, 
                resourcePool: 'Resources', 
                sourceName: "${host}"], serverName: 'vcenter_server'

In vCenter the cloned VM is indeed there and can be powered on - so the 
clone did work... why would the branch be failing?




2 - I cannot get the pipeline syntax generator to generate anything other 
than an NPE:
(Attached screen capture - what is the serverName expected in the 
resourcePool field? I've tried all sorts with the same result)
