That is when going through wizard, dont select any additional disks.. If it works, make sure the disk offering you create is also type "local" and not shared or clustered. PS: I would also change a value in global settings for vm.instancename.flag to true. This is going to use the names given in cloudstack in vmware, vs using the pre-generated "i-xxx-xxxx" name. But this has nothing to do with your issue above.
