Why is the 5.4 OVF file failing to deploy?
The 5.4SP1 update hosed our server. I was at 5.4 before the update began so Kace sent me a link to a 5.4 OVF so I could build a new server and restore from backup then run the SP1 upgrade again. That OVF gives warnings when I try to deploy it in VCenter. The point of failure is the Name and Location entry in VC. We have a lot of VM's and no problems in VC otherwise.
Has anyone been able to download the 5.4 OVF and deploy it? Did you run into problems? Find a fix?
Line 138 does show twice in the Warning message.

Possibly there is an issue with the OVF.
I would redownload and retry and if this fails I would use a 5.3 and update it to 5.4 afterwards.

Has anyone downloaded this OVF file and successfully deployed it since March 23, 2013? I've downloaded it 3 times now, twice last month and once yesterday, but get the same errors when deploying.
OP: I had to go back and deploy a 5.3 OVF, then upgrade to 5.4. Still unable to upgrade to 5.4 SP1 after a couple days on the phone with Dell Kace support. I requested escalation and have a scheduled engineer call at 10:30am today.
Will update as things develop.
