After copied EVE-NG from VM workstation to EXSi, CISCO ASAv can't start

Before posting something, READ the changelog, WATCH the videos, howto and provide following:
Your install is: Bare metal, ESXi, what CPU model, RAM, HD, what EVE version you have, output of the uname -a and any other info that might help us faster.

After copied EVE-NG from VM workstation to EXSi, CISCO ASAv can't start

Post by georgeyu100 » Fri Nov 29, 2019 5:15 am

Hi,
I have a VM of EVE_GN (2.0.3-60) on VMware Workstation. It works fine. I Copied its all files into a host of VM ESXi with vCSA6.7. Unfortunately, Cisco ASAv can't start. But, Notificates reports "ASAv started". Then, others like Cisco routers from IOL are fine, no start issue.

Weird thing is after rebooting the VM EVE-GN, ASAv can become blue for a while, then it becomes grey. if tried to start it again, couldn't see it blue again, only notifications said "ASAv started"

The VM EVE-GN has 8 CPU, 16 G RAM

How can I fix it?

first you have to check if virtualization is enabled on new EVE VM.

Code: Select all

root@eve-ng:~# kvm-ok
INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used
root@eve-ng:~#
If it is ok, then check if image is properly copied in:
/opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/

right click on node in the lab, wipe it and start

Thank Uldis for your quick response.
I input the command kvm-ok, it said: -bash: kvm-ok: command not found

images is there, no problem.

How can I enable virtualization ?
Thank you again!
