Description Lucy Bopf 2018-02-16 07:26:23 UTC 
It is now possible to upload a virtual machine image (OVA format) stored on a host in the environment to a data center.

This functionality appears to be available in the 'Import Virtual Machine(s)' window by selecting 'Virtual Appliance (OVA)' from the 'Source' list. The steps for uploading an OVA, including any prerequisites or limitations, must be documented.

Note that downloading a VM as an OVA is covered in a separate RFE, and is not in the scope of this RFE.
