SimpliVity - Deployment Failed

[masonmoesch]

Hi all,

I'm trying to re-deploy DL380 Gen9 SimpliVity Nodes. I've removed the front array VDisks on these nodes and back array. I've re-created the back array in a raid 1 as documentation suggests. When going through deployment of 4.1.0u1, validation passes, but it fails at step 8 with the error: "Unable to copy the virtual controller to the datastore. - Conversion failed"

I figure I'm missing something obvious here, has anyone run in to this before or have any troubleshooting suggestions?

Thanks!
