Is it possible to get the NetBoot/SUS appliance in a VMWare VMX format instead of OVA? Or does anyone perhaps know of a tool that can convert it?



Thanks!

I don't know about VMware workstation, but OVA works fine on VMware vsphere 5

If you import the appliance into VirtualBox, you'll see the disk format is a vmdk file. I simply gave this to our VMWare folks and they imported it easily into their vSphere infrastructure.

Excellent, I'll try both of those. Thanks guys.

There is a command line tool from VMware to convert OVA to VMX.
