Need some advice on how to revert to snapshot on reboot or other ways.

Hi.

 

So i got the task of setting up a test enviroment in vmware and the images are complete but the thing is that we got around 6-7 demo images where a lot of users can connect to with TeamViewer. The problem im facing is that people are not cleaning up after they are done testing so i created a simple bat file to execute a reboot of the image after use but i cant seem to get Vmware to automaticly revert to a spesific snapshot or just revert to anything.

 

What ive done:

1. Turned on "Independent - Nonpresistent" mode on the harddisks so that changes are discarded when you power off or restore a snapshot.
2. Set the command snapshot.action = "autoRevert"

 

So my goal is that people can connect to the demo images with TeamViewer, do their thing and be able to revert to a snapshot from inside the image.
I was hoping the way i did it would work with a easy reboot but after testing its only working when you Shut Down, and thats not very helpful when running demo images.

 

Do anyone have any ideas on how to set this up?

 

We are running Workstation 7.1

 

Thanks in advance!
