XoS in Vmware ESXi

XoS in Vmware ESXi

Quick question, can the virtual XOS image that seems to be designed for virtual box be made to run on Vmware ESXi, the reason for this request is we already have virtual versions of most vendor products, this can be connected together inside the ESXi Environment, this is great for training and simulating customer issues. However try as I might I cannot convert this to run in ESXi.

Coming back to share a new link for Virtual EXOS downloads. The EXOS Virtual Machine files are now hosted on Github.
https://github.com/extremenetworks/Virtual_EXOS

This is also documented in this GTAC Knowledge article: Where to download the latest version of EXOS VM?

I'm also closing this thread. If there are further questions, please create a new one ļ™‚

Simon,

The VM has its own image different from the regular ones.

Here's the one you need:

Thanks a lot Daniel, I've add "-cpu core2duo" and upgrade was successful

Njanyana,

I finally got some time to play with NGS3, and solved your problem with EXOS v15.7.1...

The console was showing a
Warning. Could not determine the CPU Familymessage.

So, after some investigation on the start options for QEMU, I found that all that it takes is to add
-cpu core2duoin Advanced Settings - > Options.

With that change the VM will boot without problems...
