Hi, Check your dhcp daemon logs as mentioned in the other post although from my experience the appliance will not function/work when using tagged vlans. For our server interfaces used for the COS we've had to use "native vlans" and the appliance works goes like a steam train. HTH Neil

Hi Hakimzc, I can't comment on the "HGFS" shares issue you have. Although I've had similar issue when starting/restarting the dhcp service on various EDA installations - this has normally been caused by an incorrect subnet mask or gateway. Hope this helps, Neil

Hi -yes we are. I still have the same issue. I'm now trying the appliance back in our labs with Nortel rather than Cisco kit. Funnily enough I only seem to be getting this issue on HP blade servers and not HP rack mounts. It's very frustrating. Thanks.

Hello all, Looking at the forum and Brugh's website this seems a common(ish) question or issue. I have the appliance working great, however I have issues deploying to an HP blade with 6 NICs (2x onboard and 4x via a mezzanine card). The installer loads then fails trying to find a return network route to EDA. I've tried adjusting the "eth0" option - to the point of setting it to "eth7" which causes the installer to prompt which interface you would like to use for installation. Selecting slot 0, nic-0 will also fail. Currently the network connections are using vlan tags to all of the interfaces, EDA is on the same vlan and subnet as the new blade server. I've also tried some different BIOS config's for the PXE settings although this doesn't seem to make any difference to the initial startup of the build which is working fine. BTW, EDA is running as a VM on an existing ESX cluster. The installer currently stops just after the "Determining Hostname & Domain" and the goes into interactive mode and asks which location/keyboard you'd like. I'm going to get our network team to double check the port assignments and tags. Any pointers here would be really appreciated! Thanks, Neil

Hello all, Has anyone done any work on changing the COS size from a script? This feature in the appliance would be quite handy - maybe for another release. I did some tests using "sed" to edit the esx.conf and grub.conf files from 272 to 512 mb but this didn't seem very successful. Any other ideas? thanks Neil ps: Brugh - keep up the great work!

Seems the website has been off the air for the last 245hours or so. I've been checking to see if there are any dated docs on the install and ideally a "how to guide"/ known issues - this thread is getting difficult to search through for tips and gotch-yas. I don't believe there is any alternative source for download - vmware.com state there is no bit torrent available... Neil
Turns out the appliance is using ssh v1.0 which isn't supported with my version of filezilla. I took the easy route and have winscp so all good now. Thanks
Hi, Yes it is... I've tried with telnet on port 22 and filezilla, all get connection refused.

Hi, I've downloaded and imported using converter and directly from a datastore. On powering on the appliance I get "Operating System" not found... Brugh - I downloaded the appliace from your site, followed the quicksetup items, guess I'm missing something?! Thanks in advance, Neil
