Install UMDS from the umds subdirectory on the Virtual Center CD.

UMDS needs to be installed separately, and on a computer that is NOT a VC server. I just installed it on my laptop...

Use vmware-umds to export from your download server, and then use vmware-updateDownloadCli.exe on your VC server to import. vmware-umds does not exist on the VC server.
