Hi All,
While trying to install virtual machine based on .ovf package deployment I came across the following problem:
" Incompatible device backing specified for device '7'".
At the beginning I had at my disposal an .ovf package created at VMware ESXI 5.1. My intention was to use it to install virtual machine box at VMware ESXI 5.5. I performed it without having major problems with installation.
In the next step I created another .ovf package taking as a basis the virtual machine run previously at VMware ESXI 5.5. Then I was trying to deploy built in this way .ovf template to clone the mentioned virtual machine at VMware ESXI 5.5.
Unfortunately during importing exported firstly at the same VMware ESXI 5.5 .ovf template to install almost the same machine I got the following error message:
Incompatible device backing specified for device '7'?
Could you please tell how to deal with this problem or at least what the error message refers to? I was searching through the internet the mentioned 'device 7' but wihout success.
Thank you and Regards,
