      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have tried everything and having trouble with this command and here is the error I am getting.  I have tried "--network=VM Network" and every option I can think of and those options seems correct because the command does execute, but I get the same results.  The thing is I do not currently need a network adapter installed on this machine after I bring it into the VMWare environment&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN __default_attr="#0000ff" __jive_macro_name="color"&gt;C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware OVF Tool&amp;amp;gt;ovftool.exe --datastore=EVA1Disk1 --net

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I suspect the problem is that you have two networks in your OVF. In that case, you should be able to deploy the OVF by using the options --net: NS_NIC_1_1="Host Only" and --net:"VM Network"="Host Only" (if you want to map both of the OVF networks to the "Host Only" network).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- Kristian&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I think you are really close and that may be what it is looking for, but I tried those options using every syntax I can think of and still not getting it.  Thanks for the advice&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
