vSphere Client v5.0.0 - Failed to deploy OVF Template
Posted: Wed Nov 20, 2013 5:08 pm
I'm doing a new install and since I have a VMWare ESXi v5.0.0 environment, I chose to download and attempted to deploy the vSphere OVF template (64-bit), filename “nagiosxi-2012r2.5-64.ovf”.
From my vCenter vSphere Client I selected File -> Deploy OVF Template… Browsed to the location that I downloaded it to, gave it a unique name, chose a cluster and host, datastore, and
network. During the deployment I get the error message you see below and it never completes.
Failed to deploy OVF package: File nagiosxi-2012r2.5-64-disk1.vmdk fails integrity check and might have been corrupted during transfer.
My first thought was a corrupt download so I re-downloaded, then repeated the above process, same failure. So I repeated a third time and still got the same error each time.
