Cannot deploy simple Windows 2016 VM

Hello! Using vRealize 8.1 and a slightly modified VMware cloudbase config...https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Cloud-Assembly/services/Using-and-Managing/GUID-6A17EBEA-F9C3-486F-81DD-210EA065E92F.html

I'm not able to get cloudbase to kick off at all.

In the cloudbase logs, I can see multiple errors, etc.

WARNING cloudbaseinit.metadata.services.osconfigdrive.windows [-] ISO extraction failed on <partition: \\?\globalroot\device\harddisk0\partition2=""> with WindowsCloudbaseInitException("Cannot open file: 'The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.'

I can see the ISO is attached but cloudbase doesn't appear to be able to use it.

Thank you for any input!
