Yes it does. I just got done doing it. To accomplish this I did the following:
- Used 7zip to extract the .ova file from the .gz file. - Found this web site: http://www.itsecurenet.com/virtualbox-ova-to-vsphere-ovf/ - Downloaded the VMWare OVF Tool from VMWare - Installed the OVF Tool on my PC. - Ran the OVF Tool as command line: ovftool.exe --lax <source.ova> <destination.ovf> Do not forget the option --lax There are TWO dashes in front of lax. - This converts the .ova file to multiple files that end in: .ovf, .mf and –disk1.vmdk - Found this web site: http://www.cnblogs.com/eshizhan/p/3332020.html - Open the .ovf file with an editor (notepad) and make the following changes: a. Change the line: <vssd:VirtualSystemType>*virtualbox-2.2* </vssd:VirtualSystemType> b. To: <vssd:VirtualSystemType>*vmx-07*</vssd:VirtualSystemType> c. Change the line: <OperatingSystemSection ovf:id="*80*"> d. To: <OperatingSystemSection ovf:id="*101*"> - Download Microsoft Checksum Verify utility : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841290 (Need to check SHA1) - Install the Microsoft Checksum Verify utility. - Run this command line: fciv.exe -sha1 <filename.ovf> a. Replace <filename.ovf> above with the name of the .ovf file you edited in step 7. - Edit the .mf file. Take the SHA1 value calculated above and replace the SHA1 value in the .mf file for the .ovf entry (line 1) - Use vSphere to deploy the OVF. Select the .ovf file. - DONE On Thursday, February 6, 2014 7:09:20 AM UTC-6, dan (ddpbsd) wrote: > > On Tue, Feb 4, 2014 at 11:12 AM, Tom Green <[email protected] > <javascript:>> wrote: > > Does anyone know if the appliance file on the OSSEC site will work on > > Vsphere 5.5?
