  • 1.  vCenter Virtual Appliance: Upload / Copy files to appliance

    Posted Oct 08, 2012 06:52 AM

    If I use vCenter Virtual Server Appliance (opposed to installing vCenter on VM running Windows OS) how do I copy files needed for templates (like sysprep) to the appliance.  If I had installed vCenter into a Windows Server OS then I would just copy the files via normal Windows copying mechanisms, but not sure how to get files into the vCenter Virtual Server Appliance.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Found the answer:

    Utilize FileZilla or other package that allows connection via sftp.
