won't load in VIRL

ekratz1 — Tue, 18 May 2021 14:32:37 GMT

When I do virl ls --all I get this. Nothing else shows up and no nodes.

(venv) [developer@devbox ~]$virl ls --all

Hello @ekratz1 You can follow these steps

You will need to shutdown any running lab in the sandbox (i think this starts a DC network) then start up the sbx_nxos one (it takes a good 5 - 10 mins to spin these four NX-OS up)

(py3venv) [developer@devbox sbx_nxos]$ pwd
/home/developer/sbx_nxos

# Get a list of currently running simulations
virl ls --all

# Stop any running simulations.
virl down --sim-name API-Test

# Start the VIRL Simulation for demo
virl up

# Monitor status of simulation
virl nodes   # Node startup

I did a full write up here.

Hope this help.
