I've got a 3TB VM on my ESXi 6.7 host that I export to an OVF. When I try to import the image into VMWare Workstation or Fusion I get the error "One of the parameters supplied is invalid" and the import fails.
If I create the same image with a 2TB disk the import into Workstation works fine.
I am able to import the image with ovftools using the switch -dm=twoGbMaxExtentFlat but I don't want to have to specify this every time. I'd rather the image be importable through the Workstation UI. Exporting the image with "ovftool -dm=twoGbMaxExtentFlat" doesn't resolve the issue either. It's only effective during import.
Is there any way to get past this issue in Workstation and Fusion?
Thanks
