Description
hi , I want to provision two virtual machines from template, template is created from alma linux ( cloud init image). But I am getting error : Error: error reconfiguring virtual machine: error reconfiguring virtual machine: Invalid operation for device ‘0’.
│ with vsphere_virtual_machine.vm["terraVM1"],
│ on Create_VMs.tf line 46, in resource "vsphere_virtual_machine" "vm":
│ 46: resource "vsphere_virtual_machine" "vm" {
When I try to manualy create VM through GUI in vcenter , there is no problem .
