Hi Ahmed Welcome to the list.
Allow me to make few assumptions and ask few questions about your VCL environment: - it has all-in-one management node, i.e. front-end/back-end(vcld)/database, which is registered as 'localhost' management node in VCL. - it has at least one VMWARE host (the log file mentioned 'vmwarelinux' for the image). Is it an ESXi? - it has VM host profile configured and assigned to the above VM host (under Virtual Hosts) and - it has few VM computers assigned to the VMWARE host above. Computers are 'available' and 'Provisioning Engine' is set to 'VMware' >From the log file: I would check that test2 computer is assigned to the VMWARE >host and has Provisioning Engine set to 'VMware'. It looks like vcld fails to find which module to use to process image request... Thanks.
