Re: Making a vCloud multi VM vApp template

When I saw this thread I thought it was a joke as I don't import VM's from vCenter directly into vApp Templates so I never ran across this issue.  I had to check it out to see you are correct.

 

My process adds a couple steps but it can be automated via PowerCLI or VCO as well.

 

The way I do it is:

  1. Create a new vApp
  2. Import any number of VM's from vCenter that you want to be a part of the vApp
  3. Capture to Catalog
  4. Test deploying from it
  5. Delete Test vApp and original vApp
  6. Consolidate vApp Template disks (if Fast Provisioning is enabled).

 

I've done this with 2,3, and 4 VM vApps.
