Support and News Forum

Hi support team,
I installed eve-ng (2.0.3-112) on the ESXi(version 6.7.0) .
And I could start Cisco (c3725,c7200).
But , I can't start vSRX .

I setuped by useing following example and I did same operation.

https://www.eve-ng.net/index.php/docume ... and-later/

And , I tried to these 2 type images.

1. junos-media-vsrx-x86-64-vmdisk-19.1R3.9.qcow2
2. media-vsrx-vmdisk-17.3R1.10.qcow2

I can create vSRX icon on the EVE-NG , But it does not start .

Please help me, How do I trouble shoot this ?

check on your cli: might be you missed and did not enable Intel VT-X virtualization on your EVE

Hi Support team,

It is weak CPU for vSRX mate
the best virtual vSRX are vSRX 3.0 19 or 20 versions.
But anyway i5 is too weak

Hi, Support Team.
My ESXi didn't enable the virtulization.
BIOS setting is already enabled.
But,There are no enable setting in the config file.

I added vhv.enable = "TRUE" command in the /etc/vmware/config

Then, reboot & login

virtulization is enabled.

root@eve-ng# kvm-ok

Please close this note.

Thank you and best regards,
