VcoPlugin.importOvf() is failing to upload ova from S3 bucket.

[pgk1]

VcoPlugin.importOvf(url, hostSystem, 'testFolder', 'testTemplate' , networks, datastore, props);

It creates the folder testFolder in vCenter , later takes long time and terminates with below error.

Please let me know is anything wrong here. Also let me know if you need any other details. https://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-25307 used this vCenter plugin.

I think this method is only for ovf import. It will not work with ova.

Sure let me try by importing ovf. Thanks.
