Symptoms

OVF deployment fails with error:

The given OVF descriptor is invalid. The operation is not allowed in the current state of the host.

In the vpxd.log, you see message similar to:

2018-05-15T13:03:19.013-05:00 error vpxd[7FEE1A7CF700] [Originator@6876 sub=MoOvfMgr opID=SelectResourcePageMediator-validate-57493-ngc:70004107-7d-86-64-35] [OvfManagerMo::FindHostAndDatastore] The host hfvm06.artic.edu does not have access to the datastore HFVM02-DAS.

Cause

OVF service calls OvfManager to build OST node based on the OVF descriptor, and target info. The OvfManager.createImportSpec() API requires matching datastore and compute / host from the input parameters.
The current VService handling doesn't guarantee that so the API call may fail in certain environment, i.e. no shared datastore, etc.

Resolution

This issue is resolved in vCenter Server 6.7 Update 1 available at VMware downloads.

Workaround

To deploy the OVF use the below steps:

Check the vCenter virgo and vpxd logs.

Identify the datastore which is failing as per the above log example.

Identify the host which has access to the datastore.

Deploy the OVF by specifically selecting the host instead of the cluster during OVF deployment.
