ASAv

[james_son]

when i try to import ASAv 9.2 ova into vmware or esxi

i get the " Line 330: unsuppoted element " property"

i guess ova was design for vcenter? 

[Karsten Iwen]

Only the older versions of ASAv depend on the vcenter. If you use a recent version you don't need vcenter any more. I don't remember which versions, but at least 9.5 works without.

[james_son]

you know way to convert it without running vcenter?

[Marvin Rhoads]

Why do you want to run version 9.2? This was the first release of ASAv and later versions have many bug fixes and feature enhancements that make them a much better choice in almost every use case.

The ASA compatibility matrix explicitly notes that you must have vCenter for releases prior to 9.4(1.200).
