The name you enter is the name that will be displayed in the list of environments. It may contain spaces but including other special characters is not recommended.
The following happens once you enter an image name and press enter:
Watch the vcld logfile output to determine if the image capture process is successful or terminated because a problem occurred. When the capture process terminates, there will either be a message near the end of the output saying “image capture successful” or there will be several WARNING messages, the last of which says something to the effect “image failed to be captured”. Further troubleshooting is required if the image fails to be captured.
The vcld -setup utility does not add the new base image to any image groups. You must add the image to an image group using the VCL website after the image capture process is complete. Reservations for the image cannot be made until this is done. To add the image to an image group, browse to the VCL website and select Manage Images > Edit Image Grouping.
