I want to thank Steven Poitras (@StevenPoitras) for creating and allowing me to share the scripts with the broader community.<br /> &nbsp;<br /> The scripts utilize vCenter Server to create clones and it's likely that vCenter will be the bottleneck during the provisioning process. I recommend assigning more RAM and vCPU as needed. My vCenter server ended up with 8GB RAM and 4 vCPU.<br /> &nbsp;<br /> Additionally, I recommend increasing the maximum number of concurrent operations vCenter will allow. To do that one must increase the maxCostPerHost advanced setting to 24.<br /> &nbsp;</p>
