Exporting VApp in OVF format to a local file

Hi All,

New to this forum.

Any help/advice/snippets that would help me implement some java code using the 5.5 API.

I realise the high level activities are:-

1.  call export Vapp()

2. get HttpNfcLease

3. keep Lease "alive"

4. Use the lease to determine the parts of the VApp that require to be copied

5. Download the VMDK files

6. Create a OVF descriptor to complete the ovf file

7. Release the lease.

Request 1. Is the algorithm for exporting the VApp correct ?

Request 2. If so, does anyone have any snippets that would help me along the way ?

Thanks

you should probably ask in the SDK Forum.
