The task is stuck at 50% for hours without any progress.

Any idea ?

Hi

Found this VMWARE KB :
"https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.7/com.vmware.vsphere.html.hostclient.doc/GUID-96CFEA28-DBDB-43C9-8C28-DAC6E6451C1C.html"

OVF Limitations
The size of OVF files that a Web browser can upload are also limited. Different Web browsers have different file size limits. Recent versions of Internet Explorer can upload OVF files up to 4 gigabytes in size. Mozilla Firefox also has a 4-gigabyte limit. Google Chrome can handle larger files and there is no documented limit.

Greetings.

Make sure you are accessing your vcenter via the FQDN, and not just IP, and retry.
