What is an OVA file?
An OVA file is a virtual appliance used by virtualization applications such as VMware Workstation and Oracle VM Virtualbox. It is a package that contains files used to describe a virtual machine, which includes an .OVF descriptor file, optional manifest (.MF) and certificate files, and other related files.
The OVA file is saved in the Open Virtualization Format (OVF), which is a standard format used to package and distribute software that is run in virtual machines. OVA files are simply an OVF directory saved in a single archive using .TAR packaging for distribution purposes.
NOTE: OVA files are also known as Open Virtual Applications.

Virtual appliance will be normally available on OVA format which is bundle of OVF(open virtualization format) and VMDK files. If you directly deploy OVA files from vCenter Client , it will fail 99% of times. So better you need to extract the OVA files as OVF or need to convert as VMX format to deploy the appliances on vCenter client or Vmware web-client .VMware offer free OVF converter tool which will help you to extract a OVA format files and to convert as VMX files.
Here you can download the VMware Open virtualization format tool and it’t free. Just sign up required on VMware.

4.For your information , I have kept the OVA file on the below location.
5.Go the command line and execute the below command to extract OVA file as OVF and VMDK files. (OVA to OVF conversion)
The extraction failed because the OVA file is not downloaded properly.That’s why ,the conversion stopped at 67%.

You can also extract the ova file using tar command . (# tar -xvf VOVA_HAVANA.ova). After the extraction of OVA files,you will get below files.
