3. Run the update_ovf_property.py script.
This script modifies the openmanage_enterprise.x86_64-0.0.1.ovf file for deployment in accordance with the values set
in the ovf_properties.config file. When the script finishes execution, a sample ovftool command is displayed. It contains tags such as
<DATASTORE>, <user>, <password>, <IP address>, and so on, that you must replace as per your deployment
environment. These settings define the resources that are used on the target ESXi system and also the credentials and IP address of
the target system.
NOTE: Remember to replace the entire tag including the < and > symbols.
4. Run the modified ovftool command from the previous step.
NOTE: The ovftool command must be run with the --X:injectOvfEnv and --powerOn flags because they are required
for programmatic deployment.
After the ovftool command is run, the manifest validates and the deployment begins.
