Virtual Machines Deployed from Templates Loses BIOS Settings

Details

My virtual machine deployed from a template lost its updated BIOS setting. Why?

Solution

When you deploy a virtual machine from a template into a cluster, the updated BIOS settings can be lost. This problem affects HA/DRS clusters but not DRS-only clusters.

To resolve this issue, change the BIOS setting in the deployed virtual machine that is affected.
