How can I keep type NIC vmxnet3 when exporting to the OVF/EGGS

Hello

I exported a virtual machine from my server ESXi 4.0.0 using ovftool for Windows, but the type of NETWORK card seems to have been changed as part of the conversion. It was VMXNET3 on the host, but ends up being VMXNET in the OVF.

The export was made as follows...

 ovftool --eula@=c:\MyEULA --powerOffSource vi://root:password@esxi4_host/MyVapp d:\dev\vapps\ 

Excerpt from the original .vmx

ethernet0.virtualDev = "vmxnet3"

The .ovf excerpt that has been generated

   <VirtualHardwareSection>
...snip..
      <Item>
        <rasd:AddressOnParent>7</rasd:AddressOnParent>
        <rasd:AutomaticAllocation>true</rasd:AutomaticAllocation>
        <rasd:Connection>VM Network</rasd:Connection>
        <rasd:Description>VmxNet ethernet adapter on "VM Network"</rasd:Description>
        <rasd:ElementName>ethernet0</rasd:ElementName>
        <rasd:InstanceID>6</rasd:InstanceID>
        <rasd:ResourceSubType>VmxNet</rasd:ResourceSubType>
        <rasd:ResourceType>10</rasd:ResourceType>
...snip..
    </VirtualHardwareSection>

Is this a known issue? No work around?

This is a known issue and is fixed in the next version of ovftool.

A work around is to open find file OVF nic change the resourceSubType of


 VmxNet

TO


 VmxNet3

You must also remove the .mf file after you modify the OVF.

I hope this helps.

  • How can I keep changing file created when exporting

    I upgraded to LR6 of LR4.  LR4 would allow me to keep the original date file created.  I need this feature, and I can't get LR6 to behave this way.

    How can I do this?  I don't want to go back to LR4 and I don't want to change Capture one - but I'm going to one of the two LR6 does not provide the option.

    Anyone?

    It should work the same way in Lightroom 6 as in Lightroom 4. In both versions, if the original Date of Capture camera EXIF is exported depends on how you configure the export dialog box:

    If you want the original to be included in the export Date of Capture metadata for 'All metadata' or ' all except & camera Raw Info.

    If you don't want the original Capture Date to be included in the export, set metadata for 'Copyright only' or 'copyright and Contact Info Only'.

  • How can I keep my current theme when you use the private window

    I went from using a complete theme for just a regular theme (one is no longer compatible with the 40.0.2 full update). When I open a private window I am presented with the default theme of Firefox with no way to change to one of the other themes that I try to apply. Is there something that I am missing, or was it a change that has taken place through many updates for Firefox, while I was still using the complete theme? I would like to use the theme on windows normal and private is it possible?

    Sorry, it's a 'function' private browsing and using a light theme. PB takes the default theme. Been like that for quite some time now - as can be as far as Firefox 29, 30 or 31.

  • How can I keep my graphic changes when updating link Excel?

    I have an Excel chart linked in my InDesign file. This graph has no formatting of Excel but I made adjustments to the color, the width of the cells and the size of the graphic in InDesign.

    If I change the Excel file and try to update the link in InDesign, it's the warning that I get...

    "Changes were made to the imported version of [name of file]. You will lose those changes when you update the link. »

    So if I import the Excel file, my InDesign changes do not remain and the chart looks terrible again. How can I set it so my InDesign changes remain and only the data in the graph are updated?

    Thank you!

    I thought about it - I had to put colulm widths on "exactly". Thanks for your help with the rest!

    Three options.

    1: take the corners of the window and drag it to the format full screen. Do not use to expand. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window the next time that you open the program.
