Hi,
Am trying to export an ova from a VM using ovftool. Something along the lines of...
ovftool --prop:Version=100 --privateKey=./id_rsa.pem --eula@=./eula.txt vi://root:mypass@myserver.mydomain.com/myVM ./myOVA.ova
Everything looks good except that I haven't been able to define the 'Product', 'Version' and 'Vendor' that appears in the initial dialog when customers deploy the template into a running ESX / vCenter instance.
Assume this must be a v common question but have not found how this might be done from the ovftool user guide (http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/ovf/ovf301/ovftool-301-userguide.pdf) or the VMware communities. Closest I've found is http://communities.vmware.com/thread/328504 which indicates that defining a vCenter vApp allow configurable properties to be set.
Is there any way to define these parameters via ovftool? If not, is there a way to hack the .ova manually to define them?
Thanks in advance,
Frank.
