VM Clones Not Enrolling as New Computers in JSS

Hi!

Have a strange issue that I'm trying to figure out. I have a couple VMs in Fusion Pro that I am using for package building. I wanted to create a couple more VMs by cloning them. The only issue is that the clones just overwrite the existing record in JSS, I can't enroll the clone as a new machine.

So far I have tried : Changing Hostname
Changing MAC Address
Changing UUID in the vmx file (this also changes serial)

Any ideas would be welcome thanks! sk

Have you tried unenrolling your template cm, then changing the uuid then enrolling?

Your template vm should not have the agent on it yet. That would be my suggestion.

Thanks I'll see if that works.
