      Provisioning a new clone is failing when initiated from Jenkins. 
      When attempted the same on command line or on vCenter UI, there are no errors.

      Jenkins is using vSphere plugin (version 2.25)

      Account is setup with recommended permissions. https://github.com/jenkinsci/vsphere-cloud-plugin/blob/master/docs/jenkins-configuration.md

      Error shown on Jenkins side as below:
