Hi,

 

There is a sif cli provided for this. You can find out more information from the developer guide: https://www.vmware.com/support/developer/studio/studio26/studio_developer.pdf

 

For a full list of all the options you can run: /opt/vmware/bin/sif -h

 

For the basic export import case here is an example.

 

Assuming I have a profile caled ubuntu12.04x64.xml which I have successfully built a VM with I can:

 

1.) Export or create a sif file based on the profile

/opt/vmware/bin/sif -e  /opt/vmware/var/lib/build/profiles/ubuntu12.04x64.xml -o ubuntu12.04x64.sif

 

2.) Import that sif file into another Studio

/opt/vmware/bin/sif -i ubuntu12.04x64.sif -b <base directory>

 

To lay it out as it was on the originating you could use -b / for the root directory as base

 

There are other options there as well for including an iso for example if that is what you want.
