Description Kedar Kulkarni 2019-07-29 14:18:03 UTC
Description of problem:
 Publish VM to template takes very long time to finish and then finishes with Error  as follows: 

"
[EVM] VM [test-pblsh-3h9o] Step [CheckProvisioned] Status [Error Creating Template] Message [Error: undefined method `last_inventory_date' for nil:NilClass]

"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.11.0.16

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Add Vmware Provider 
2.Select a VM and publish it to a Templates
3.Watch Request

Actual results:
Request takes a long time to finish, and when it finishes, it ends up in error state. 

Expected results:
It should publish template without errors and within reasonable amount of time. 

Additional info:
1) Template was indeed created in the VMware env, its just that cloudforms didn't detect it and finish the request. 
2) Template was not big, so time it took was certainly delay from CFME side, template was published in vmware env in timely manner. 
3) It works in 5.10.7.1

Hi Kedar,

Can you provide a reproducer environment?

Thanks,
Tina

Comment 6 Tina Fitzgerald 2019-07-30 15:58:41 UTC
Hi Kedar,

Thanks for the reproducer.

Requests 9 and 10 fail for different reasons.
Can you make sure you can publish both of them successfully directly through vmware?
(Or, can you supply the credentials so I can do it?)

Thanks,
Tina

Hey Tina I will follow up with you on Chat regarding env access.
-KK.

    Fix clone vm to template check_provision

    The same find_destination_in_vmdb is used when cloning a vm to a
    template, so we can't use ext_management_system.vms.find_by()

On CFME build 5.11.0.18 I was able to create templates using feature "Publish VM to Template" without any errors.
