VMware templates disk resize

Support
1

Hello.

I use foreman 1.9.2
I tried create base template with 5GB disk volume, and deploy with foreman to VM with 25GB disk. Disk in Vmcenter is not resized. It’s a bug with foreman?

Yes, it is a bug in 1.9, but was fixed recently and will be available in
Foreman 1.10. The first release candidate, 1.10.0-RC1 is likely to be
available today - keep an eye out, and please help us test it.

Bug #9705: Disk sizes specified not used in VMware image provisioning - Foreman is the ticket.

I think there is still a bug in foreman where the newly provisioned vm uses
the Template disks INSTEAD OF the new disks. Foreman does create the disks
but just doesn't use them. Can you look into this? I am using RC2.

I'm not able to, but please file a bug in Redmine in the "Compute
resources - VMware" and hopefully somebody can. Please include as many
details as possible, and I'd be especially interested to know whether
this is happening on 1.9 or 1.10 only.

Thanks. I have created an
issue: Bug #12487: Provisioning with Templates causes new VM to use Template Disk - Foreman
