Dear Andy, Many thanks for your interesting answer ! Eventually, to answer to your question we got at blocking step once we have finished installing all the VCL components successfully in one node. By reaching the 'Capture a Base Image' step [ https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/Capture+A+Base+Image] we got so far some errors but we could finally see in the frontend in 'New Reservation' tab our Image. After adding the image to the specific image group and mapped to the specific computer which runs in the same VCL instance [All-In-One architecture], we were facing the following error message [See attached file]:
*There are no available times thatthe selected image can be used. * In the other hand, for the same image, creating the reservation in later option will generate a different error message: [See attached file] *There are currently no computers available that can run the application you selected.* The base image actually resides in the database but cannot be handled for reservation! Furthermore, we intend to mimic a real production environment. Using VirtualBox or VMware workstation, we were wondering if passing by installing an ESXi server in a virtual machine besides to a VCL server instance in another VM would be sufficient for a simple correct test and run a reservation ? What would be the optimized way to do so ? VMware Server is not supported anymore and I think testing with ESXi will be more beneficial ! Looking forward to hear from you and thanks in advance ! Best Regards Phd team >
