①OVFTool実行に必要なものをインストール
dnf install libnsl
※インストールしないとデプロイ時に以下エラーが出た
Error message: ApplianceDeploymentTask: Caught an exception Deployment failed. OVF Tool return error code: 127

②ISOマウント
mount -t iso9660 -o loop /tmp/VMware-VCSA-all-7.0.3-20150588.iso /mnt/cdrom

③json配置
④デプロイ
/mnt/cdrom/vcsa-cli-installer/lin64
./vcsa-deploy install --accept-eula --no-ssl-certificate-verification --acknowledge-ceip /tmp
/embedded_vCSA_on_VC.json
