What’s new:
- Publishing a VMTX template might fail if you do not specify a target ESXi host while creating a subscription
- When you publish a virtual machine template managed by Content Library from a published library to multiple subscribers, the operation might fail if you do not specify a target ESXi host while creating the subscription. You see a similar exception: An invalid argument \”spec.location.host\” was specified.
