NetApp VSIM ESX 9.5P6 checksum does not match file name

I downloaded vsim version vsim-esx-DOT9.5P6-cm_nodar.ova

 

The checksum download, MD5Checksums_9.5P6.txt, has listed 

vsim-esx-DOT9.5P6-cm.ova 

and

vsim-netapp-DOT9.5P6-cm_nodar.ova

 

I do not see  vsim version vsim-esx-DOT9.5P6-cm_nodar.ova 

Is this a typo in the MD5Checksums_9.5P6.txt file?

 

thanks

Hi there!

 

As the checksum matches, yes, use that one for ESX.

 

The only difference is the filename.

 

"nodar" means "no data at rest encryption"

Probably - does the checksum for the nodar file you downloaded match the one in the file for vsim-esx-DOT9.5P6-cm.ova? We only distribute the nodar varients as simulators.

This is the txt file of check sums:

MD5 checksum for 9.5P6 .ova files

   vsim-esx-DOT9.5P6-cm.ova                        1b498410991e9ca41e93b496f441491b

   vsim-netapp-DOT9.5P6-cm_nodar.ova 1ce11d4f357d45383dd433a607758016

 

I downloaded this file vsim-esx-DOT9.5P6-cm_nodar.ova.  This is the one to use on ESXi for  the simulator?

The hash matches the vsim-esx-DOT9.5P6-cm.ova, not the downloaded file of  vsim-esx-DOT9.5P6-cm_nodar.ova ?

Any updates on the response I provided with regard to the checksum and file name?
