Deploying the VM in ESXi If you installed HSNM just now, and don't know where to start - ask here!

Hi,
I am getting errors while deploying the VM in ESXi. I am using VMWare ESXi 6.0. 
Error snapshot attached. 
Can you help me here with what could be possible issue here.

Hi Will,

the error indicates that the .vmdk file is missing. So I think that the file has been deleted, probably manually, or that an error occurred during the conversion process. Anyway it's something related to VMware.

I suggest you to check for the missing file in the datastore and eventually to perform the conversion process again based on the guide we provided to you.

Best Regards.

Hi
I have faced the same issue.
I have downloaded and extracted zip file. No error occurred as well as vmdk file exist in the location.
Can you clarify VMware version supported pls. I am using ESXi 6.0

Thanks

Hi,

we are aware that some of our customers are running HSNM on ESXi 6.0 without any problem.
But we have never run any of our HSNMs on ESXi 6.0 yet. We are using our HSNMs on ESXi 4.0, 4.1, 5.0 and 5.1.

You fully followed our guide's steps, didn't you?

The error you got is related to VMware so the only suggestion I can give you is to ask to VMware support for further informations.

Best Regards.

Hi
This is working in VMWare workstation. But not in esxi.

Hi,

I confirm you that many of our customers, and also us, are using HSNM with ESXi (many ESXi version included version 6).
Nothing is missing from our guide and its steps allow you to correctly import a virtual machine to an ESXi server.

If you have that error from ESXi server, powering on the machine, I repeat that the best thing to do is to ask further informations to VMware support.

Best Regards.
