I have been working on deploying server templates in OVF format to a number of remote datacenters that were recently upgraded to 6.5. Doing so through the web client (Java or HTML) seems to hang at the Validation step. I read several articles online that stated this is something of a known problem, so I decided to just script it out. I am using the snippet below:
Import-VApp ` -Source <path to source> ` -Name "ATL 2016 Template" ` -VMHost (Get-VMHost -Name "host.mycompany.com") ` -Datastore (Get-Datastore -Name "VRTX-Local-VMs") ` -DiskStorageFormat Thin
This has worked well for 20+ sites, but I have one site that is throwing an error. The error states:
Host did not have any virtual network defined
Which doesn't make sense, as the cluster has a VDS the same as all the others. Just curious if anyone else has seen something like this, or what may be causing it. I did a search online but came up with nothing.
