Description
We have configured a template OVF with 2 nics attached to 2 differnet portgroup and we tried to create a VM with 2 nics but we received this error after the apply command:
│ Error: 400 Bad Request: {"type":"com.vmware.vapi.std.errors.invalid_argument","value":{"error_type":"INVALID_ARGUMENT","messages":[{"args":["network_mappings","com.vmware.vcenter.ovf.library_item.resource_pool_deployment_spec"],"default_message":"Could not convert field 'network_mappings' of structure 'com.vmware.vcenter.ovf.library_item.resource_pool_deployment_spec'","id":"vapi.bindings.typeconverter.fromvalue.struct.field.error"},{"args":[],"default_message":"Element already present in the map.","id":"vapi.bindings.typeconverter.map.duplicate.element"}]}}

if we execute plan command we can notice different ports groups into the debug output.
