Today i had a problem trying to deploy the latest version of the vCNS Manager 5.1.2a. The deployment process of the vCNS Manager VA failed immediately with the error:
“The virtual machine is not supported on the target datastore”
I used the latest version of vCenter Server and the latest IBM ESXi build.
To solve the problem i had to disconnect one of the ESXi hosts from vCenter Server and deploy the vCNS VA directly to an ESXi host. I couldn’t even deploy the vCNS Manager directly to an ESXi host when the ESXi host was managed by vCenter Server.
