Getting 'Error importing OVF' error when importing FAZ or FMG VM's in VMware Workstation

Every time I try to open an OVF of a FortiAnalyzer or FortiManager on VMWorkstation running on Linux Mint I get the following error:

Error importing OVF: Invalid target disk adapter type: pvscsi



Fortunately the fix for this is easy. Simply edit the .ovf file of the image you're trying to import and change the following highlighted value:

  <rasd:ResourceSubType>VirtualSCSI</rasd:ResourceSubType>

to this:

  <rasd:ResourceSubType>lsilogic</rasd:ResourceSubType>


Save the file and re-import the OVF and it should work now.
