Environment
ZENworks Configuration Management 2017
Situation
The ova for ZENworks Configuration Management 2017 Appliance fails
gives error on ESXi 6.5:
OVF package with compressed
disks is currently not supported for OVF import.
Resolution
This is fixed in version 2020 - see KB 7024113 "ZENworks Configuration Management 2020 - update information and list of fixes" which can be found at https://support.microfocus.com/kb/doc.php?id=7024113
Note: This file is a functionally-identical version of the
earlier file (ZENworks2017a_Appliance-x86_64.ova), repackaged only
to include support for ESXi 6.5. For those who already have
installed the appliance, no steps are necessary.
Cause
ESXi 6.5 wasn't compatible with the earlier packaged file and
required manual steps to install per TID
7022054.
