Proxmox documentation does mention OVF support https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migrate_to_Proxmox_VE#Import_OVF https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migrate_to_Proxmox_VE#Import_OV... Seems a bit barebones, as in no support for a nice OVF properties launch UI, but one should be able to extract an OVA to an OVF and VMDK an manually edit the OVF with appropriate properties. I actually had plans this week to try exactly that...

I've set up a ton of virtual appliances that way. It's just a regular ZIP file with the config and vmdk(s).

Interesting thanks for sharing. Surfacing this in the UI would be great if it works well for sure. Another handy feature is the ContentLibrary for organizing and launching OVA/OVF, as well as launching OVA directly from a URL without needing to download it next to the cli. This makes me think there could be an opportunity in "PhotoPea (kvm gui) for vCenter" - in the same manner photopea is a clean room implementation of the photoshop UI/UX

  > Interesting thanks for sharing. Surfacing this in the UI would be great if it works well for sure. That's on the roadmap, from the original forum post linked here: > Q: Will other import sources be supported in the future? > A: We plan to integrate our OVF/OVA import tools into this new stack in the future. > Currently, integrating additional import sources is not on our roadmap, but will be re-evaluated periodically.
