A. Export the vApp as an OVF Template
B. Convert the vApp to a Template
C. Clone the vApp to an OVF Template
D. Add the vApp to the Catalog
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Exporting the vApp to an OVF template allows you to store the template outside vShpere. It can then be imported at another location.
Incorrect Answers:
B, C: Virtual Machines can be cloned or converted but vApps, which can include several virtual machines, resource pools, and other vApps, cannot be cloned or converted.
D: Catalogs are used in vCloud but you would upload the OVF template to the catalog rather than the vApp.
