The Peoplesoft team continues to provide the PUM images on schedule. Great work. The last image HCM 9.2.003 has been released about two-three weeks ago.
I’m still using VMWare ESXi vSphere Hypervisor 5.1 and my workaround to move these OVA to VMWare is still working fine, find out more about this workaround I wrote about few months ago here.
There’re few changes though. The number of updates required in the ovf file have been dramatically dropped down. Right now, we’ve only have two parts to modify:
From
OperatingSystemSection ovf:id="109">
Description>Oracle_64</Description>
vbox:OSType ovf:required="false">Oracle_64</vbox:OSType>
To
> <OperatingSystemSection ovf:id="101">
> <Description>oracleLinux64Guest</Description>
> <vbox:OSType ovf:required="false">oracleLinux64Guest</vbox:OSType>
And From
vssd:VirtualSystemType>virtualbox-2.2</vssd:VirtualSystemType>
To
> <vssd:VirtualSystemType>vmx-07</vssd:VirtualSystemType>
Apart from that, other changes in the file are no longer necessary.
Note that the sound card tag is not there anymore as many of the others which caused incompatibilities with VMWare.
Then I deployed the OVA with ovftool (the link points to the latest version 3.5, but I’m still using the previous version 3.0.1, it probably does not make any difference for this case):
