    37             The <b outputclass="bold">Appliance Settings</b> page
    38             shows the VMs described in the OVF or OVA file and enables
    39             you to change the VM settings.

    42             By default, membership of VM groups is preserved on import
    43             for VMs that were initially exported from <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/>.
    44             You can change this behavior by using the
    45             <b outputclass="bold">Primary Group</b> setting for
    46             the VM.

    59                 If an appliance has multiple VMs, you can specify a
    60                 different directory for each VM by editing the

    62                 the VM.

    90             The imported VMs are shown in the list of VMs in VirtualBox

    93         <p>
    94             Because disk images are large, the VMDK images that are
    95             included with virtual appliances are shipped in a compressed
    96             format that cannot be used directly by VMs. So, the images
    97             are first unpacked and copied, which might take several
    98             minutes.
