Export ESXi VM using ovftool in Linux

$

Hello,

 

I am trying to use the ovftool in Linux to export a VM running on ESXi 4.0 to an OVF package with the following syntax:

 

$ovftool "vi://root@192.168.X.XXX?ds=[datastore1]test-vm/test-vm.vmx" /home/ovfs/test1.ovf

 

But I always get the error: Datacenter object not found

 

The path to the vmx file is:

test-vm/test-vm.vmx

 

If I have a standalone ESXi (no vCenter present) what Datacenter name should I use?, I have tried with "Datacenter", "Default" but nothing seems to work.

 

Any help is highly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

 

 

Juan Aristizabal.
