One really useful advanced option found in the latest version of ovftool 4.0 is -X:injectOvfEnv which I have already written about To get the complete list of ovftool advanced options, you just need to specify -help integration option.

This was pretty annoying with previous releases of ovftool but it looks like with the latest 4.0 version, there is a new advanced option called -X:disableHostnameResolve that would allow you to disable this check.
I recently had a need to deploy an OVA using ovftool on a Windows desktop and I ran into the following error: Error: Could not lookup host: root Since the environment I was deploying to did not have DNS, the failed hostname lookup was expected.
