I am trying to deploy a VM into ESXi 4.1 from .ova template using
ovftool. My ESXi is having two datastores:- datastore1 and datastore-2.
This is the syntax I am using:-
ovftool.exe --name=test -nw="VM Network" -ds="datastore1" CentOS.ova vi://10.102.143.30
It is shows the following messages:-
Opening OVA source: CentOS.ova
Please enter login information for target vi://10.102.143.30/
After entering the login information nothing happens. It returned me the prompt. It also doesn't print any error message.
Below is my ova file information obtained by probing:-
