What is one reason snapshots would NOT be available in the Clone from snapshot window when using the
Linked Clone build Action?

A.
The source virtual machine should be a virtual machine template.
B.
The source virtual machine has multiple snapshots.
C.
Data collection must be run for the vSphere Endpoint to retrieve the snapshot information.
D.
Data collection must be run for the Compute Resource to retrieve the snapshot information.
I think “B” is correct.

Answer is D. The linked clone action will populate template and VMs from configured computer resources those are having snapshot. So an inventory collection should be executed on computer resource after taking snapshot.

Answer should be D
vRA runs data collection periodically. If a template is removed (or created) the change is not reflected until the next data collection. To speed things up you can force to gather snapshots information manually by triggering Data Collection.
