vsphere replication appliance giving error while deplyoing

[Vicky987]

Hello

I am deplyoing vsphere replication appliance 6.5.1 I have vCenter server 6.5 U1 while installing i am getting error as "The given ovf descriptor is invalid the operation is not allowed in the current state of the host " .

vCenter Server is 6.5 U1

vSphere replication appliance is 6.5.1

Esxi Host is 6.5 U1

I have also tried deplyoing vsphere replication appliance on standalone host Esxi 6.5 U1 as well as on 6.0 U3 but giving me error as "Line 321: Unsupported section 'vServiceDependencySection' (vCenter Extension vService Dependency)."

Can you suggest solution.

After update my OVFTool to version 4.2, the issue seems to be fixed.
