Hi - I feel like I've asked this in the past; however, my developer colleague 
has me spinning my wheels trying to get his code to work against this 
VMware/ACS environment.

I'm having trouble with deploying a VM instance using a VMware specific 
template when I DO NOT use the "Read VM Settings from OVA."  When I don't use 
that setting I set the root disk controller as "lsilogicsas" and NIC to 
"e1000."  The VM deploys however the OS never completely loads, just spins at 
Windows OS "Getting devices ready."

Using the SAME image, with the Read OVA setting - the VM instance deploys and 
loads the OS without issue.

Can someone from ShapeBlue or ACS verify that for VMWARE environments the "Read 
VM settings from OVA" IS or IS NOT required?  If in theory, I should be able to 
deploy a VM from a template where "Read VM Settings from OVA" is OFF - what 
could be the issue (I assume its something identified in OVA that is not 
getting loaded/seen from basic ACS API).



Many thanks!

Mike
