Yeah, I don't know what this is, but seems VMWare/ESXI is pretty picky about how "hardware" is defined in an OVF. This is why ovftool is needed in the first place.
Unfortunately, since I have extremely limited experience with VMWare, I have no better response than: Google it.
I followed a Google rabbit hole from [1] to [2]. It might help, but I have no way of testing it. Please let me know if you get it to work; we could do with updating our docs on this point :)
