How to deploy Cloudforms 2.0 to my VMWare environment?

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • I can't deploy the virtual appliance to vSphere 5.1. I've downloaded the evm-v5.1.0.4-r.zip file, then renamed to evm-v5.1.0.4-r.ovf, because the VMware deployment tool won't let you deploy anything, but .ovf and .ova files.
    The deployment failed with the error message: "OVF descriptor too large".
    Then I renamed the file to evm-v5.1.0.4-r.ova, but the process failed again, with the error message: "OVA has invalid header block".

Environment

  • Red Hat CloudForms 2.0
  • VMWare Vcenter 4.1, 5.0, 5.1
