How to fix VMware fusion to import existing machine ( cloudera ) grayed out ?

Question

How to open the VMWare fusion with existing machine ?

Anybody succesfully install cloudera machine in VMWare in Yosemite ? Once I am trying to import the virtual machine file it grayed out .. any recommendation would be great.

Answer 1

In vmware fusion , you click file -> open -> select a (.vmx) file in your cloudera

Answer 2

If the files are already located in your Virtualbox Machines folder and the vm files are already unzipped and in the correct format, then the issue could be that you are using the import command instead of the open command. I ran into this issue and simply using the open command solved it.
