Hi,
We are running vCenter 5 U1, with a mix of ESX 4.0U2 and ESXi 5 U1 hosts.
Whenever I attempt to Export the OVF Template of a VM from the File Menu in the VI Client, I get a "Failed to Export Virtual Machine: The Operation has Timed Out." This usually occurs after 20% or more progress with VMs that are over 20GB in size. Sometimes the timeout error even occurs after 100% progress.
There's been much discussion here: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/232810 but no resolution nor workaround.
Q: Are there any settings in vCenter/ VI Client, eg: vCenter Server Settings > Timeout Settings that may resolve this?
Are there any known workarounds or resolutions to this?
