Automatic Authorization of vSphere Cloud Agents

Hi,

we are using VMWare vSphere to provide Agents on Demand to our TeamCity Server 2017.2.4 (build 51228) using the "clone and delete" behaviour in the cloud profile. Unfortunatley, the agents are not authorized automatically. 

After the cloud profile boots the agent (by pressing the Start button or initially after configuring the profile) the agent appears in the unauthorized tab and the cloud profile does not recognize it. There is a warning in the Cloud Tab that no agent connected after VM startup.

What can be the reason for this behaviour?

The log file of the agent states that the agent started, connected with id=<some number> and is waiting to be authorized. 

The cloud-log of the server says that the VM has started successfully.

Thanks
