vCD IMPORT Guidance - OVF

$

Hi

 

>> Does anyone know if there is a KB or whitepaper on IMPORT guidance with respect to the the content of the .vmx => OVF parameters ?

i.e. either an edit of the .vmx file or some options in the ovftool

 

There is a guide "

VMware vCenter Lab Manager® to VMware vCloud®

Director Migration" which i have a copy of, byt can't find the URL now, which references going through vcenter then to vcd.

We are not doing this for two reasons :

- difficulty getting IT who control permissions to do this
- the fact that some Lab Manager VMs don't import to vCenter with obscure errors as well (e.g. you need to remove a network card ref or the like for it to work)

 

In a previous thread, Re: ovftool -diskmode IMPORT to vCD context  i was told the ovftool switches are not important,

i did not see guidance on a OVFtool option that vets / reports things that vCD will not like.

 

We are finding IMPORT of OVF failing for no reason and be believe they are related to some items vCD does not like.

 

Thanks
