I am working in vsphere 5.5 and I need to move a template from one system to another. I need to save the template onto a dvd or external hard drive and physically put into a datastore on a a different system but I cannot make it work. I moved a .vmtx file across and it did not work. How do I place a template onto disk and move it to a different vsphere?
 
Do you have a lot of customization in the template definition?

Convert the template to a VM, export it as an OVF, then convert the VM back to a template. Import the OVF to the other system and recreate the customization spec.

I've tried, but I encountered too many errors to salvage the VM. I ended up building a new VM to spec, time was an issue. I thought this would have been a much simpler task than it was.
