.. note::

56+
When using vSphere and vCenter versions 6.0 and 6.5 there is a limitation on
57+
instance names with a sequence number between 99999 and 1000000. For example if you take
58+
a snapshot of a VM, the expected filename will be different to what cloudstack expects.
59+
It is advisable to set the sequence number to 1M to prevent issues by executing the
60+
following script on your cloudstack database:
61+
62+
UPDATE cloud.sequence
63+
SET value = 1000000
64+
WHERE name = 'vm_instance_seq';
