Converting a VMDK to OVF file

Hi,

I newly created a ESX 3.5 host and I have some vmdk files from version 2.5. Can I convert the vmdk file to ovf so that I can import this on the ESX 3.5?

Thanks for your time.

Judy

Welcome to the forums - there are a couple of ways to do this - the issue with changing the ESX 2.5 to OVF issue is I am not sure that there is any way to do that - I do not know if you have looked at upgrading your existing 2.5 server or not - if there are issues in doing this I would recommend using VMware converter - also I do not know if you have seen this PDF or not covering how to upgrade from ESX 2.5 to VI-3 -
