Deploy a Virtual Machine to Static DVS Port Group

At this time, you can not use the OVF Tool to deploy a virtual machine to a static port group.

To work around this issue:

Procedure

1	Use vCenter Server to create an ephemeral port on the desired network.
2	Deploy the appliance to that port group on an ESXi host.
3	Switch the appliance over to that static port group.
4	Use vCenter Server to delete the ephemeral port group.
