nexus booting error

[golisz]

Hello Guys,

I have the same issue after updating to the newest version of EVE. I had lab working for more than 2 weeks with 4 nexus devices running, 4 ASR's ( CSR's) 4 ASA's and multiple switches. Everything is working fine but nexus devices are not bootking up anymore. They are stuck in boot.

I am using this NxOS version

boot nxos bootflash:/nxos.7.0.3.I6.1.bin

Please Help

Thanks

inside of nexus image folder, rename file from hda.qcow2 to sataa.qcow2.

/opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/nxosv9k-7.0.3.I6.1/

filename inside must be
sataa.qcow2

then wipe your node, and start...
This update works only for v70.
sata hdd is used for faster NX boot.

Such behaviour is usually when you have not given to NX ensufficient resource to run.
It simply has no power run it

NX9K myst be min x4CPU and 8G RAM for single node

[golisz]

inside of nexus image folder, rename file from hda.qcow2 to sataa.qcow2.

/opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/nxosv9k-7.0.3.I6.1/

filename inside must be
sataa.qcow2

then wipe your node, and start...
This update works only for v70.
sata hdd is used for faster NX boot.

UD

I think I pressed the the right button

Thanks you so much for your answer UD.

I did change hda to sataa and fix the permissions. I wiped the node and this is the result I have right now:

What should I do to start nexus again. I have 4 CPU per 9K with 12 G ram

Thanks

[Uldis (UD)]

Look, so many annoying screens,

get me in skype: uldisd.poisonfish
Will chat online..

if you did changes you must wipe node before start again

[golisz]

Thank you so much for your support UD. You are awesome

Now I am back again on my lab.

I will upload that lab as soon as I will be done with it

Thanks
