During VM creation, you might get into a situation where your deployment is blocked due to incorrect or invalid settings in the VM template, VM Host or cloud.
VMM might refer to the cause by using a reference Task ID GUID.

Obviously, PowerShell…
$JobInfo = get-SCjob –ID <GUID>
That actually brings back an VirtualMachineManager.Task object with a property AdditionalMessages.
Looking at the AdditionalMessages will reveal all problems that cause the deployment to be blocked.
