While I believe I know the answer, I have a need to be able to deploy a third party customers OVA or OVF instead of cloning a template via vCAC. Of course the ideal situation would be all of the variables from the OVA would become custom properties.
The only work around I can come up with is deploy the ova, write custom configuration scripts for the application, convert to template, deploy via clone, run the config scripts, etc. Of course this is not optimal.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tim
