Citrix Provisioning Server 4.5 (was Ardence) wont load virtual disk images

Hello

I am running Citrix Provisioning Server in Pilot to deploy virtual and physical machines. I am having problems getting clients to PXE boot to the hosted vdisks I have created. Physical clients or virtual clients hosted on Xenserver 4.1 can boot fine and mount the shared disk, but ESX based guest clients get to the point at which they are to mount and say "virtual disk not found".

i have tried this with ESX 3.5 and with ESX 3.5 Update 1 + all updates and the same things occurs. They successfully PXE boot and register with the provisioning server, but will not then mount the disk on the next reboot.

Any help/experience around this would be much appreciated. I can provide more details on request if this isn't a known problem.

Thanks

Jonathan
