#FAILED TO EXPORT OVF VMWARE WEBCLIENT ISO#
The problem is that ovftool is trying to find the iso in the datastore apart from the vm i was trying to export, the virtual cd room of siem was set to datastore iso, so in order to fix this I need to change back to the Host device.Īfter i changed from “Datastore ISO file” to “Host device” I can continue to export.I found some logs where the VM failed to load after we've powered back on the ESXi host, this could possibly give me the information I am looking for, however, I am only interested in the VM name and compiling it into a list. It says file not found, however I have verified that the spelling and the case of the word of the vm is the same, siem definitely exists. I want to export an existing vm known as siem, note that the vm name is case sensitive so Siem is not the same as siem.ĭuring the extraction I encountered a weird problem: Ovftool -noSSLVerify -name="CentosThinProv" -diskMode=thin -datastore=datastore1 -network="VM Network" C:\temp\CentOS\CentOS.ovf time the hdd space is according to how much was used. So let’s try one more time to import with another name, though the ovf is the same file. name is a customize name of the imported vm, if this is not specify the name will be taken from the filename of the ovf you are trying to import.īecause I did not specify the -diskMode the default is provision as thick. network is to specify the virtual network name i want the vm to use. datastore is to specify the datastore i want to put the vm.

Ovftool -noSSLVerify -name="CentosBackup" -datastore=datastore1 -network="VM Network" C:\temp\CentOS\CentOS.ovf is to suppress the certificate warning. I was doing some test and practice of using ovftool to export and import ovf into a vm host.
