Juniper vMX 16.1 Installation

[jackychu]

The file hierarchy of vMX 16.1 and 17.1 is different. It does not include the qcow2 and img file in the tgz file.
Can anyone help to advise the procedure to import the vMX 16.1 JUNOS? thanks

decompress the ova,and vmdk will shows up.
Then convert the vmdk to qcow2.
I think this will be ok,you can try it!

Hi. Is everything working?

Pure guess this but that looks like messages related to the interfaces. Pretty sure this happens in some way on all Juniper V devices when the fpc loads and the interfaces show up.

If it's working not to worry

Cheers

[Uldis (UD)]

These messages disappear after some time...

yes, it is working but it shows frequently that make the screen so messy...

You can ignore this error - it's nothing to worry about.
I talked with juniper - if you want to get rid of this, follow the Instructions on my Blog: https://jncie.eu/how-to-get-rid-of-sche ... er-on-cli/

thanks Chris.
