OMIVV 5.4 fails to complete ESXi bare metal deployment
I'm trying to build some bare metal servers with ESXi 7.0u3d using the Dell ISO but for whatever reason the OS load fails to complete with a 'rootpasswd' not set error. There's also a DHCP error prior to that. Seems like the ks.cfg file that has all of the customization from the Deploy wizard in OMIVV is not making it to the new OS installation.
I'm also seeing some weird behavior with the ISO image repository, when I 'test' the URL within the profile, it will sometimes come back with invalid location. If I test it once again immediately after that failure, it will test successfully.
Another issue has been some python error from the failed deployment
Anybody come across this type of issues?
