Cannot import or export of OVFs using VCenter 6.0

I am unable import and export models of the OVF from/to an ESXi host v6.0 using vCenter. (This is the first time that I do this)

My attempts to import an OVF (tried two different ovfs with the same results) result in "connection to the remote resource has been lost. Error, check your network connection", followed by"the task was cancelled by the user.

Trying to export a piece of model with "could not connect to the remote resource: couldn't resolve host name", even once followed by "task cancelled by the user.

Since the VCenter Server I can NSlookup and ping to the host and the VM (ping when turned on) tell me that is not a DNS problem.

Attached is a vpkd log file that displays recording, what happens from the point of application to import to the point of failure.

Does anyone have an idea about what is happening here, or how I can be able to solve this problem.

PS. I am able to deploy an ovf directly to the host by using the vsphere client, but "eggs of data protection" seems to require through vCenter.

Thank you.

I found the answer in a message displayed by Christer74.

The solution to my problem was to add the hostname of the host servers to the file hosts on my laptop (pc lot access vCenter to via the web client).

  • Conversion of OVF using vCenter

    I have a situation where I need to convert around 40-50 VMs in the OVF package. I think vCenter can export the OVF one at a time. Is there anyway that I can run parallel task? In any case, it's test environment. No worries about any performance problem.

    It will use the resources of the host, so you should be good on that low-power desktop.  You can monitor the use of host resources and see that the processor, disk, and network are all quite high during the process.

  • VMware 6.5.5 cannot import the virtual machine that uses 2GB "disks of split.

    Hello

    I'm using VMware Workstation 6.5.5 under Win XP. I tried to import a virtual machine that was created by using the option 'Split' virtual disks into files of 2 GB. The import fails and presents a pop-up: ' Conversion Assistant/cannot determine the guest operating system. The log file includes the line "could not find the disk cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk. This file does not exist of course, there are more files cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s001.vmdk, cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s002.vmdk and so on. The machine virtual original (cofortcol3v01) has been created under VMware Workstation 5.1, and it does not under Workstation 6.5.5.

    Is this a known problem in the conversion utility? Is there a work around for this problem?

    Thank you.

    FYI... VMware Workstation peut import a Virtual Machine that uses twoGbMaxExtentSparse discs.

    The log file includes the line "could not find the disk cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk. This file does not exist of course, rather there are files cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s001.vmdk, cofortcol3v01-cl1 - s002.vmdk and so on. The machine virtual original (cofortcol3v01) has been created under VMware Workstation 5.1, and it does not under Workstation 6.5.5.

    Is this a known problem in the conversion utility? Is there a work around for this problem?

    The problem is that you're missing the "disk DescriptorFile", "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk" and which is why it's a failure and not a limitation of the Conversion utility.

    Also if you actually had a Virtual Machine created in VMware Workstation 5.1 you can simply run directly under VMware Workstation 6.5.5 without having to run the import command.

    Anyway, if you have a backup that you can recover the file "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk" then you should be fine and if you have not then a new can be created.  If you can archive (compress) files vmware*.log (usually 4 of them) in a single zip file archive and tied him to a post in response, then one of us will create a new file "cofortcol3v01 - cl1.vmdk", based on the information contained in files vmware.log for you, if you don't know how to do it yourself.

  • cannot import images into lightroom cc using Mac

    everything I try to import images of the map, I get a message that says lightroom could not read image. The card reader works because I can import pictures from another app like iPhoto.

    The most common problem for errors "failed to read", it's that your destination folder has WRITE permissions added.

    In your LR import dialog box, verify that the destination folder is where you want it to be and correctly spelt.

    Then, using the Finder, go to this folder and make sure that your username has both READ and WRITE access to this folder and its parent.

  • How can I import and export MBOX files in Thunderbird?

    Hi all, how can I import and export MBOX files in Thunderbird?

    I tried to install the add-on "ImportExportTools" but it seems that it is no longer recognized by Thunderbird, not the most recent generation.

    That this is the case, is no longer seems to be any official method of handling the files MBOX via Thunderbird, which is odd, given that Thunderbird itself announces that it is method of storage of email records is also MBOX files. It seems obvious that Thunderbird should natively support a file format import and export it is used internally

    If you know of a solution that does not rely on the conversion of traditionally third party utilities little reliable, please let me know.

    Thank you, KB_IT

    Hi there and thank you. I got it on 45.2.0.

    "" I haven't managed to make it work, but only by the search for available modules and following a request from 'import export tools' the "see all results" that work only then produced a success for the plugin in question and showed a button to install it.

    Installers hosted on the site of the third party do not work, nor their instructions to use the option "install file". work, which led to the creation of this ticket.

    Since then, I was able to do properly installed where it works very well.

    I hope that they are a regular feature. I intend to announce this as a best practice to my organization, in collaboration with Google fish, during the handling of the mbox files in Windows operating system.

  • Cannot open properties Export/Import tool

    Hi all

    I work with NI TestStand 2014 and I try to use the "Import and Export properties" tool to tools-> Import/Export properties... but when I click it, nothing happens, no window, no warning, nothing.

    The option is of course on the menu, but are there other conditions that I might be missing? Search the internet for examples, it seems just trivial this tool should appear at least...

    Any suggestions would be welcome.

    I thank very you much in advance!

    Matt.

    Update of last minute: install the 64-bit version of TestStand has solved my problem!

    I can open a card, but he wants to add it to windows instead of thunderbird contacts

    How can I fix this

    vCard or .vcf

    Some address book programs use a vCard format, which cannot be imported directly by Thunderbird. You can import the .vcf and vCard using the third-party "MoreFunctionsForAddressBook" Thunderbird extension

    https://NIC-NAC-project.org/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html

    • Download on the desktop or the folder "downloads" on computer.
    • In Thunderbird. 'Tools' > 'Modules' to open the "Add-ons Manager" in a new tab
    • Click the icon of Marguerite and select ' install Addon file
    • Locate the downloaded file as
    • Click open to install in Thunderbird

    Save vcard / .vcf attachment for example: desktop

  • Firefox 15.0.1 cannot import bookmarks from Safari 6.0.1

    Hello

    Firefox 15.0.1 cannot import bookmarks from Safari 6.0.1.

    I followed the steps below:

    (1) all bookmarks in Safari to export to a file (file-> export bookmarks) HTML
    (2) import bookmarks into Firefox (bookmarks-> Show all bookmarks-> import and backup-> import bookmarks in HTML)

    Firefox seems to load the HTML file, but never bookmarks appear in Firefox.

    Any thoughts of why this is happening?

    Best,

    Jaime. -.

    You need to remove all the attributes of FOLDED into H3 tags with a text editor.

    Then the import should work.

  • Import volumes exported to Readynas 516 s with OS 6.5.1

    Need help to import my exported volumes? I tried all of the suggestions I've read on here. I even looked in the manual and found nothing... The only thing I have not tried is reinstalling OS, it's something I can do myself in the start menu, or do I helps me to do it for me because they have more stuff than the standard way? I exported volumes for two 516 s identical so I could trade all hard drives between them. The volume on one was empty and the other has years of data. The two volumes are set up in raid x-raid 6 with a single volume that spans all six readers... Maybe this feature should be disabled if it is if unreliable and not important enough to be well documented... This easy solution for my situation has turned into a very bad... Any help is appreciated...

    Called Netgear helps make my 'import of cold' on my volume of 'Export' ed. Only took them lees 30 seconds to adjust any setting to fix. It does not involve reinstalling the operating system as someone else had alluded. I asked the person to explain what he was doing, but they only told me that he was not a solution simple and left. Sorry I can't share how to solve this problem, if anyone else ever gets in this similar situation... I recommend not to use the export function until someone to Netgear decides to will contact it better than just pop up when you click the export function...

  • Cannot import photos from an SD card.

    We have just returned from holiday and having forgotten our SD card, we have reduced the quality of the image on the camera to 1.2 megapixels so that we could store as many photos as possible of our Kodak Easyshare C180 memory. When we returned, we all copied to the SD card and plugged on the F drive. He transferred four pictures and then gave us a message that the drive needed formatting, but when we tried to format it failed. We ended up formating the card after plugging in the camera and repeating everyhting. Plug the SD card in a second time, that we do not get the prompt to format but just a SD file that once we open both automatically and manually, stops responding. We cannot import, copy manually, or see one of the photos once plug us it into the drive, yet the camera bed map very well. I have a HP new with Windows 7.

    Thank you
    Eric

    The following Kodak document indicates that your camera
    a 16 MB internal memory and 11 can be used for photos...

    I was wondering how many photos you expected to download
    the camera?

    What are the dimensions in pixels of the 4 pictures that you have successfully
    to download on your hard drive?

    Kodak EasyShare C160/C180 Extended User Guide
    http://resources.kodak.com/support/PDF/en/manuals/urg00964/C160_C180_xUG_GLB_en.PDF
    (see page: 49-8 Appendix - internal storage capacity)

    If you can still see the pictures on the display of the camera...
    It may be interesting to try to connect the camera to PC via USB
    Cable to see if you can download the photos...

    Once you have retrieved the photos... it may be worth trying
    format the memory card in the camera.
