Import VMware ESXi from VirtualBox
VirtualBox can export appliance VMs to OVF format. And you can import the ovf format to VMware ESXi, however there are some trouble.Unsupported hardware family 'virtualbox-2.2'.
OVF hardware element 'ResourceType' with instance ID '5': No support for the virtual hardware device type '20'
OVF hardware element 'ResourceType' with instance ID '8': No support for the virtual hardware device type '35'.
yeah, there are some tips:
First, you need export appliance using OVF extension(default is ova) in VirtualBox.
And run a python script (https://gist.github.com/eshizhan/6650285):
#!/usr/bin/env python
#
# usage:
# conv2vmx-ovf.py some-vm.ovf

import sys
fn = sys.argv
fp = open(fn).read().decode('utf-8')
fp = fp.replace('', '')
fp = fp.replace('virtualbox-2.2', 'vmx-7')
fp = fp.replace('sataController', 'scsiController')
fp = fp.replace('SATA Controller', 'SCSI Controller')
fp = fp.replace('sataController', 'scsiController')
fp = fp.replace('AHCI', 'lsilogic')
fp = fp.replace('20', '6')
end = fp.find('sound')
start = fp.rfind('', 0, end)
fp = fp[:start] + '' + fp
nfp = open('vmx_' + fn, 'wb')
nfp.write(fp.encode('utf8'))
nfp.close()
