Prerequisites

• A dedicated vSwitch for the Swarm Storage Network before importing VMs with the dual virtual network card.

• VMs created on VMware ESX 7.0 must be loaded into 7.0U2 or higher (8.x is not supported but has been tested)

• If using vCenter, use the VMware vAPP OVF datacore-swarm-16.1-ESX-RL8.ovf to load the entire set of VMs in one command. Must include the nvram files as well.

• If not using vCenter, use an individual OVF for each template. This requires specifying the associated disk for each VM.
