Once exported, edit the OVF file and remove all the NVRAM entries
<File ovf:id=“file3″ ovf:href=“<VM Name>.nvram“ ovf:size=“8684″/>
<vmw:ExtraConfig ovf:required=“false“ vmw:key=“nvram“ vmw:value=“ovf:/file/file3″/>
If using the OVFtool make sure to use the –skipManifestCheck this allows the OVF to be created after removing the references to NVRAM without this command the OVF Tool would not be able to confirm the manifest file and will return an error
