Description
Hi,
I create VM through Salt Cloud which is based on pyvmomi.
With Nutanix infrastructure it works fine.
It doesn't works with VSAN Infrastructure. The VM appears twice : in the target folder and in the "Discovered virtual machine" folder. The creation task blocks at 62%. I can only delete the VM from the "Discovered virtual machine" folder. When the task is timeout, the second VM disappear.
Thanks,
Rémy

Research direction
Start with the Salt Cloud VMware entry point mentioned in salt/cloud/clouds/vmware.py and review the linked pyvmomi and Salt Cloud documentation. Reproduce VM creation against VSAN and compare it with the working Nutanix case; done means the task completes without a duplicate VM or an orphaned entry in the discovered-VM folder.
