What is an OVF?
An OVF (Open Virtualization Format) is a package of files used to describe a virtual machine or virtual appliance. This format is designed to facilitate the portability and easy distribution of virtual machines across different virtualization platforms by including metadata about the virtual machine and its components, such as virtual hardware configuration and disk images.
Why are all answers wrong on this exam ? At some point Moderator needs to start fixing it, i understand 1 out of 50 but i been finding tons of wrong answers.
Yes, Agree
Indeed! Why pay for wrong information
we pay for questions :D
I notice on the main 350-401 page there are a lot of comments saying to "Look at the comments". IE, dont trust the answer provided. I have noticed this too, nearly every second question is wrong and you have to go on what is most voted.
I feel the last 150 questions (650-800) have been phoned in. I think people start dropping off the deep end this deep into the dump
D. a package of files that is used to describe a virtual machine or virtual appliance

Most commonly, an OVF file is used to describe a single virtual machine or virtual appliance. It can contain information about the format of a virtual disk image file as well as a description of the virtual hardware that should be emulated to run the OS or application contained on such a disk image.
D. a package of files that is used to describe a virtual machine or virtual appliance OVF stands for Open Virtualization Format. It is a standard for packaging and distributing virtual appliances or more generally, software to be run in virtual machines. OVF is a format that describes the metadata about the virtual machine and its components, including details like the virtual hardware configuration, disk images, and other necessary information. It is used to enable portability and easy distribution of virtual machines across different virtualization platforms.
is the correct answer
but itsn't a package of files! its a single XML file.
Correction: In addition to the OVF descriptor(XML), the OVF package will typically contain one or more disk images, and optionally certificate files and other auxiliary files. The entire directory can be distributed as an Open Virtual Appliance (OVA) package, which is a tar archive file with the OVF directory inside.
It´s D Open Virtualization Format
