Running jenkins 1.504 on RHEL5 and vsphere-cloud-plugin 0.10 . vsphere client 4.1.0 and ESXi 4.1.0
Steps to reproduce :
- Create a new cloud in jenkins settings
- Create a new slave to use the cloud configured earlier with a machine name * And a snapshot name to revert to on launch (force vm launch = true)
- Test the configuration and get "Virtual Machine found successfully"
- Launch the slave and nothing is written to the log. just the animated sphere is rolling but nothing there
- Note: This happens only when setting a snapshot. without a snapshot everything works fine.
Check with Jenkins log file and see the following loop:
INFO: [vsphere] Starting Virtual Machine... Mar 6, 2013 10:24:21 AM org.jenkinsci.plugins.vSphereCloud InternalLog INFO: [vsphere] Reverting to snapshot:michael Mar 6, 2013 10:26:21 AM hudson.slaves.SlaveComputer tryReconnect INFO: Attempting to reconnect vsphere
Looking at vsphere events, I can see the user logs in and logs out, If I look into the specific machine events list I don't see anything.
Also tried, as suggested by plugin owner, to Set the slave to no snapshot. Get it running and connected. Then, while connected, set the snapshot to a valid value. Also, set the "What to do when the slave is disconnected" to "Shutdown and Revert". Then disconnect the slave (kill the slave agent or hit Disconnect in Jenkins). See if both the power down AND revert commands are sent to the VM by looking at the vSphere task list.
Results: from Jenkins log file i see :

From the vsphere event list i don't see the shut down event or the snapshot
