Title:
  VMware: operating system not found after upgrade to 5.5

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am testing the vmware native driver of nova compute component.

  My environment should be workable before I upgrade my vCenter and EXSi from 5.0 to 5.5.
  After the upgrade, I found all the existing VMs boot from nova can not be started in my vCenter with 'Operating system not found' error.

  I tried to delete the image cache in my datastore under the _base
  directory and try to boot a new one, it doesn't help, the problem is
  still.

  I get a new image from here:
  http://partnerweb.vmware.com/programs/vmdkimage/debian-2.6.32-i686.vmdk
  , this one is workable in my env.

  So, I am confusing what's wrong with my existing image which should be
  workable fine before my upgrade.

  Here is my image in the glance:
