This file can be imported to another VMware platform, this help us to migrate all the Virtual Machine content easily without reinstall software stacks and configurations. Software-backed RSACryptoServiceProvider is only capable of doing RSA signature using a SHA-2 digest algorithm when the CSP ProviderType value is 24 (PROV_RSA_AES) and the ProviderName is "Microsoft Enhanced RSA and AES Cryptographic Provider" (MS_ENH_RSA_AES_PROV). Dealing with quite a few different versions of VMware, I get quite a bit of indirect support work. This means that if you have a "sha1, md5" setting, then if ivy finds a sha1 file, it will compare the downloaded file sha1 against this sha1, and if the comparison is ok, it will assume the file is ok. *.mf – is a manifest containing a reference to the vmdk and ovf, also holding a SHA1 hash which ESXi will check for validation. In the vSphere Web Client, click Deploy OVF Template and provide the link address as the source URL. Software-backed RSACryptoServiceProvider is only capable of doing RSA signature using a SHA-2 digest algorithm when the CSP ProviderType value is 24 (PROV_RSA_AES) and the ProviderName is "Microsoft Enhanced RSA and AES Cryptographic Provider" (MS_ENH_RSA_AES_PROV).

The OVF package is invalid and cannot be deployed. During checking (at download time), the first checksum found is checked, and that's all. Copy the link address of the OVF file.

I’ve tried to download again file, download another version or correct manifest using ovftool but no results Any ideas? Browse to https://ESXi.host/folder. This … access. Interestingly, the whole OVF data was contained in an ISO file which passed the MD5 check after download. Hardware may or may not require PROV_RSA_AES, just depends on the hardware. EXAMPLE:The process to convert an OVA to SHA1 for compatibility with the 6.0 and 5.5 vSphere or ESXi systems: Open a CMD window (as administrator) cd C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware OVF Tool ovftool.exe --shaAlgorithm=SHA1 C:\Users\username\Downloads\SonicWall_WAF_2_0.0.0-17waf.ova C:\Users\username\Downloads\SonicWall_WAF_2_0.0.0-17waf-SHA1.ova Recently, I had a few issues with an Invalid Manifest File.

SHA1 sum check seems to be failing on import of OVF file.

But when we upgraded OVFTool to resolve that, it also changed the default checksum from sha1 to sha256. Log in and navigate to the new folder in its datastore. Percona Monitoring and Management; PMM-2199; PMM 1.8.0 and vCenter 5.5/6.5: Invalid OVF checksum Hardware may or may not require PROV_RSA_AES, just depends on the hardware. The following manifest file entry (line 1) is invalid: SHA245(example.ovf)=… VMware KB 2151537 explains it: This issue occurs because the vSphere Client does not support the SHA256 hashing algorithm. shell.

The setting is a comma separated list of checksum algorithms to use. You can convert the OVA from the Cryptographic Hash Algorithm SHA256 to SHA1. shell_config; monitoring.
