Architecture:
Running SCVMM2012R2
Running latest version of Orchestrator with most recent integration packs
I have been trying for some time to fully automate the VM deployment process that my company currently uses.
So far, I have been able to use Orchestrator for pretty much all of it. (Though a struggle I will admit)
Where I am getting hung up though is getting my VM to pull an IP from an IP Pool that is set up in SCVMM.
I have a template that I created, and when I "create VM from template" in SCVMM, my Windows 2012R2 server boots up with a static IP assigned from the pool. Great. Now I want to automate that process.
Orchestrator grabs the aforementioned template, and builds the VM. When I go into SCVMM VM Properties --> Hardware Configuration --> Network Adapter 1 --> Connection Details. I get an IP from the pool just like I would expect. When
I power on the VM though, the network adapter is set to dynamic, and the IP address is 169.254.231.94. Not great. When I go back to SCVMM and check the Connection Details.. it updates to reflect the APIPA address...
So my question.. what am I doing wrong?
