Hi there,
A customer has deployed a VM via OpenNebula, they powered down the VM after approx 1 month while building the VM to increase the memory.
They performed the resize, increasing the memory to 6GB while the VM was powered off, powering on fails with a hotplug error.

– deploy failed, back to powered off –
By default hot plugging is disabled on VMs in VMware, strange how this is a hotplug task when the VM is powered off.
Does anyone have experience with this issue or suggest and areas to check?
I will be doing a screenshare to understand their steps and reproduce.
Thanks in advance,
Derek
