vsphere on-demand slave. Job hang as pending?

[k...@capres.com]

Hi

Just setup vshere plugin. I want to use it to deploy slaves on-demand.

Configured vsphere cloud and test ok against vcenter.

Created one slave template and labeled it "w7x86.v1.2".

Created a "freestyle project".

Selected "restricted where this project can be run", and entered "w7x86.v.1.2", and get "label is serviced by 0 node  and 1 cloud".

create a build step "windows batch" => echo Hello world".

When I try to run the job, it hangs on "pending" and no slkave is created - am I missing something heere ??

By the way - I have:

vSphere 6.0

Jenkins 1.642

vsphere cloud plugin 2.10

[k...@capres.com]

Found there is two entried with vsphere when creating a new node.

[k...@capres.com]

Updated jenkins to 1.648

Uninstalled vshere plugin, and installed it again (still have two entries in "new node").

Now the VM get cloned and appear in vshpere, but it keep offline state.

What should be done to get it online??

I have this problem after I independently bring up the VM to modify it outside of Jenkins using the vsphere client.  Jenkins does not recover from this scenario nicely.  I have to launch slave agent manually on the node page after this and then everything works properly.

Have tried to search for info about using the vsphere-cloud plugin, but can't find any ( other than the jenkins plugin page). Wonder if anyone else have this working (against windows/linux)?
