If you create a virtual machine on an Oracle VM Server for SPARC with a physical disk access, it is not possible to export that virtual machine as a virtual appliance.
In this case, when you attempt to export the virtual machine as a virtual appliance with the Oracle VM Manager Command Line Interface, the following error message is displayed:
Server error: vbox-img didn't return expected value (0,) CMDERR: vbox-img: error: VD: error VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND opening image file '/dev/mapper/<disk_Id>' vbox-img: error: Error while opening source image: File not found. (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)
Workaround: There is no workaround for this issue.
