At the beginning of the Week I was pleased to place a new Plugin for the VMware vCenter Orchestrator in the VMware Solution Exchange (https://solutionexchange.vmware.com/store ). The Plugin is called VMware Orchestrator OVF Transfer Plug-In and can be used to Up- and Download ovf Files with the VMware vCenter Orchestrator. Here is the description of the Plugin:
Description:
The OVF Transfer plug-in allows you to up and download OVF Templates to/from the vCenter via the vCO.
• The following operations are possible:
• Automatic deployment of your OVF templates
• Automatic export of VMs to an OVF

And some highlights:
• Upload OVF Templates via vCenter Orchestrator
• Download OVF Templates via vCenter Orchestrator
• As Source and Destinations the following places are available: Local file, HTTP, HTTPS and FTP. With the Windows installable version you can also use File share (CIFS)
You can download the Plugin from the VMware Solution Exchange here:  https://solutionexchange.vmware.com/store/products/ovf-transfer-plug-in

Many thanks to my colleague Carsten Schaefer who wrote and maintains the Plugin!
