Using vdiskmanager : VMware Fusion-based VM to ESXi 5.5 host; file conversion in OS X

Hi All, 

 

I have a Linux-VM I am running in Fusion on OS X, but I'd like to move it over to my ESXi 5.5 host on the same network. I understand that I need to convert the .vmwarevm file I currently have into the 2 file .vmdk format for ESXi. I found the vdiskmanager application and downloaded it, but I am struggling with how to employ it. Launching the application does nothing more than show me its man page- I have the correct command (I think) and the right syntax based on the man page, but when I can't figure out how to actually employ the tool. OS X keeps telling me the command isn't recognized. Help? Thanks!
