We recently deployed vRA in our environment and got everything working with VMware Professional Services. That engagement is over and we have decided to implement a new flavor of windows in our catalog. I have installed the VRM Guest Agent on the template, and have it communicating. However, any action that makes a change will not work. I keep getting errors like this:
2017-02-01 11:00:17.163] [I] Set-ItemProperty : Requested registry access is not allowed.
At C:\Windows\TEMP\vmware36\vco_vmware217.ps1:20 char:3

ient:String) [Set-ItemProperty], SecurityException

rShell.Commands.SetItemPropertyCommand
The account we are using is a local admin on the box. The script runs fine from the local box in an elevated powershell session. A little digging on google turns up that the script in the guest agent isn't running elevated.
How do i fix this? I've followed several blogs to install the agent, but can't seem to figure this out.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
