Hi, William

I checked my profile config and image type also say 'kickstart' while it's 
actually set to 'none' in vcl.vmprofile table.
Can you check if datastoreimagetypeid is changing or is it set to 6 (6 is vmdk, 
vcl.imagetype is reference table for imagetype)?
Could be that GUI doesn't pull/display current imagetype correctly...

Thanks.
