To create a child variation to root variation we create a new label under Variation Labels [http://newServerName/_Layouts/_Layouts/VariationLabels.aspx] and after this click on Create Hierarchies button on this page.
When timer job "Variations Create Hierarchies Job Definition" runs , it tries to create the child variation site including subsite of child variations. This also includes publishing Pages Library and publishing pages.

I was trying to use timer job "Variations Create Hierarchies Job Definition" to create a child variation [es-LA] to root variation[en-US] .
But I was getting error (under Variation Logs) :
AND
Below mentioned solutions did not work for me :
1. Fix the possible misalignments like problem in the relationships list[http://newServerName/Relationships List/AllItems.aspx] using VariationFixUpTool.
2. In the SharePoint file C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\Resources\cmscore.es-ES.resx (installed by the language pack for Spanish)
Change the value of List_Pages_UrlName as seen below
<Data Name="List_Pages_UrlName">
<Value>Pages</Value>
</Data>
to
<Data Name="List_Pages_UrlName">
<Value>Paginas</Value>
</Data>
Save the file. Now go and restart the SharePoint 2010 Timer service. Then create the Spanish Variation. [
Eventhough "List_Pages_UrlName" solution did not work for me for this specifc problem , but with Spanish sites you get funky behaviour out of URLS retrived from Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb.PagesList SPobjects ,
you can give it a try !!!!]
Below mentioned solution worked for me :
1. Disable all custom built features on root variation. (spweb level features)
2. Now create new Label , submit variation creation on Variation Labels and run timer job "Variations Create Hierarchies Job Definition".
3. I was still facing issue 0x80070057 which is discussed here as a separate thread.
4. After resolving issue 0x80070057 , child variation was created.
5. Now enable all custom built features on both root variation and child variation.
