ABSTRACT
The Open Virtualization Format (OVF) Specification describes an open, secure, efficient and extensible format for the packaging and distribution of software to be run in virtual systems.
The OVF package enables the authoring of portable virtual systems and the transport of virtual systems between virtualization platforms. This version of the specification (2.1) is intended to allow OVF 1.x tools to work with OVF 2.x descriptors in the following sense:
-
• Existing OVF 1.x tools should be able to parse OVF 2.x descriptors.
-
• Existing OVF 1.x tools should be able to give warnings/errors if dependencies to 2.x features are required for correct operation.
