Booting service in vcloud using upload script

Dependencies:

ovftool: https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?downloadGroup=OVFTOOL400&productId=353 I recommend putting it in /Applications/VMware OVF Tool/ovftool on mac, which is where it installs by default.
includeos-tools: https://github.com/includeos/includeos-tools.git

Steps

Compile service with vmxnet3 boot -b .
Enter build folder and run $INCLUDEOS_SRC/etc/vmware <name_of_service_no_extension>. This will create all necessary vmware files and boot with fusion. Let's you know if it boots correctly.
Enter newly created folder. The folder name is the timestamp from when the vmware command was run. e.g. /IncludeOS/examples/acorn/build/20170529_115844/0
Configure credentials in includeos-tools/vmware/upload_to_vcloud.sh:

vcloud_address=""   # Address to vcloud e.g. vcloud.basefarm.no
username=""         # Username used to log in to vcloud
org=""              # Org used in the vcloud e.g. IOS
vapp=""             # Name of the vapp that is uploaded

Upload ova to vcloud. includeos-tools/vmware/upload_to_vcloud.sh <name_of_service>.ova. You need to enter your vcloud password.
Log in to vcloud manually and when upload is complete right click vm and select start.
