Hello team and thank you for accepting me into the forum.
My company has provided me with the ability to create virtual machines with a lot of ram for labbing purposes.
Many months now i have been using the unl engine and it has offered me a good labbing experience - i would like to create another virtual machine with eve but i am worried, i do not want in any circumstance to recreate all the devices i have set up in unl (iou l2/l3, checkpoint, asav, f5, juniper, winxp machines, unix machines, and tens of others that took me a LOT of time to import successfully one by one).
My question is - is it possible to copy all the devices from the unl virtual machine to eve virtual machine ?
I checked the "EVE HOW TO" videos but i didn't find this information.

P.S The virtual machines have absolutely no access to the internet there is only lan connection between them via the same vlan
Thank you very much for your time and have a happy Easter!

So briefly
Install Eve
Copy folders from unl to EVE:
/opt/unetlab/labs
/opt/unetlab/addons/
/opt/unetlab/tmp/
E.
PS: If you install on same server: backup those directories with sftp to any safe place ( local PC ? ) then repush backup to new EVE

Thank you very much for your reply, do you happen to know why i am receiving this errors after i imported the latest ova with eve inside?
I used the "Deploy OVF Template" wizard of vsphere client version 6.0.0 and it was completed successfully, however, i am getting "kernel panic, not syncing vfs, unable to mount root fs on unknown"

Check the settings of your VM. ( in Esxi )
Enough Disk ? enough Ram, CPU ????

Hi team, does anyone knows why the half of the images i loaded are not working?
i added 37 folders in the qemu folder but 15 of them are not available to be added as a node.
for example, win-2008-lite-u0 and win-7 is not working, but win-xp works fine.
