| --archive filename.ovf | The OVF file archive to restore. |
| --no-auto-start | Do not start the VM after the restore has finished. |
| --cpu number |
The number of CPUs to assign to the VM. This defaults to the value in the archive. |
| --memory size | The size of memory, in megabytes, to assign to the VM. This defaults to the value in the archive. |
| --name vm-name | The name to assign to the VM. This defaults to the value in the archive. |
| --storage-groups groups | The list of storage groups to use for allocating the VM's volumes. By default, all available storage groups are used. Allocation occurs in a round-robin fashion. |
| --interfaces networks | The list of shared networks to assign to the VM's interfaces. By default, values in the archive or available shared networks are assigned. |
| --volume-prefix prefix | Adds the specified prefix to the beginning of the newly imported volume names to prevent conflicts with existing volumes on the system. For example, if a source volume is ocean_boot, and you specify --volume-prefix new, the imported volume would be new-ocean_boot. |
| --data | Restore data only for the specified volumes. |
| --silent | Suppress output. |
| --dry-run | Show the interface to the shared network and volume-to-storage-group assignments without actually restoring a VM. |
| --throttle |
Slow down the operation. Valid values are:
|
| --use-https | Use secure HTTPS transport instead of the default streaming method (HTTP transport). Streaming over HTTPS provides slower performance than HTTP but is much more secure. |
