Bug Description

As of Juju 2.6, we provision an instance by creating a VM, resizing its disk, then cloning it. That causes the original machine's MAC address to be copied. In practice this isn't an issue, because the temporary VM is deleted as soon as possible, but the vSphere operator still receives a "Critical" alarm.

I think this is resolved now - we don't assign network devices to templates, only at clone time, so there aren't two machines with the same mac.
