csr1000v installation

[llew]

Hi

I have been following the csr process but have run into this issue

root@eve-ng:/opt/unetlab/addons/uploads# /opt/qemu/bin/qemu-img create -f qcow2▒▒ virtioa.qcow2 8G
▒ virtioa.qcow2 8Gnetlab/addons/uploads# /opt/qemu/bin/qemu-img create -f qcow2 
qemu-img: virtioa.qcow2: Unknown file format 'qcow2 '

I have no idea what the cause is , can it be the reason I cannot telnet to vIOS devices?


Many Thanks
Llew

Hi

Ok , got past that bit (internet explorer was adding a few characters when pasting)

However now get

root@eve-ng:/opt/unetlab/addons/uploads# /opt/qemu/bin/qemu-img create -f qcow2 virtioa.qcow2 8G
Formatting 'virtioa.qcow2', fmt=qcow2 size=8589934592 encryption=off cluster_size=65536 lazy_refcounts=off refcount_bits=16

Any suggestions?

you please check if you have allocated enough memory for your EVE!!!

during install process it assign 3Gb ram for CSR node !
So your EVE must not be less RAM than 6Gb !
AND be sure that Intel VT-X/EPT is enabled for CPU

Hi

Thanks for the advise

upped the ram to 16gig
HOST = i7 , 32gig

still get:
