VCF 9.0.1 Hangs during VCF Automation Deployment #91

Describe the bug

I am trying to deploy a full stack with the command:
New-HoloDeckInstance -Version '9.0.1.0' -InstanceID 'gray' -WorkloadDomainType 'SharedSSO' -NsxEdgeClusterMgmtDomain -NsxEdgeClusterWkldDomain -DeployVcfAutomation -DeploySupervisor

This works fine until it goes to deploy VCF Automation and ends up showing the error:
10-02-2026 05:57:47 SddcMgmtDomain[2175]: [ERROR] Management Domain deployment failed. Check the logs below for more details
10-02-2026 05:57:47 SddcMgmtDomain[2175]: [ERROR] @{name=Retrieve the status of VCF Automation Deployment request; description=Retrieve the status of VCF Automation Deployment request; status=COMPLETED_WITH_FAILURE; creationTimestamp=02/09/2026 19:54:19; updateTimestamp=02/10/2026 05:56:32; errors=System.Object[]}

The deployment retries and then hangs with the holo router showing:
10-02-2026 12:43:56 SddcMgmtDomain[2175]: [INFO] Current task in progress: Retrieve the status of VCF Automation Deployment request
10-02-2026 12:43:56 SddcMgmtDomain[2175]: [INFO] Management Domain is not ready yet. Sleeping for 5 mins

And has been showing this for over 12 hours.

Reproduction steps

1.New-HoloDeckInstance -Version '9.0.1.0' -InstanceID 'gray' -WorkloadDomainType 'SharedSSO' -NsxEdgeClusterMgmtDomain -NsxEdgeClusterWkldDomain -DeployVcfAutomation -DeploySupervisor
2.
3.
...

Expected behavior

Complete the deployment without issue.

Additional context

This is my second attempt, after deleting all previous VM's, including the Holotrouter and redeploying. Seems to hang as the same point. I had been having some DNS issues, etc. with my previous attempt and thought it maybe related. I deleted everything related to the VCF 9 deployment, including the Holo Router and started over. This time it all worked fine until I hit this step again.
