I am trying to install APIC-EM ISO into my VM VirtualBox, and it boots and gets to grapevine prompt.

i don't know how to login/pass and what to do to get to APIC-EM wizard.

VM VirtualBox may not be supported please refer to:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/cloud-systems-management/application-policy-infrastructure-controller-enterprise-mo…

But anyway when you start the VM setup wizard should automatically start and prompt you to input info including the necessary login/password. Refer to "Cisco APIC-EM Configuration Wizard Parameters" from document above.

You don't need login/pass to install. Can you please take a screen shot to show where you have issue ?

three screen shots. two during boot-up and one the login prompt I get to.

I did do a test of breaking into the grapevine account (and can get to the shell), but I don't know if possible to do anything.

did do another test, with a real server on install, and what I have noticed is that my VM BOX install never gets me to the APIC-EM install wizard. hoping to get this VM working for flexibility. Any help would be appreciated.

HI Matt,

How much disk, CPU, and memory do you have allocated to the virtual machine?

Thanks,

Zach

Did you had chance to review the following checklists before beginning your single-host Cisco APIC-EM deployment.

I am getting closer. First issue was disk space requirement, as once I increased to 14GB it has gone much further, but now it is getting hung up on the NIC. I have selected Internal Network NIC's, but was not sure exactly what to select. see screen shot of when it runs into issue. (I understand the requirements, but trying to run this on minimal specs, as I want to be able to test custom API's from my own machine in private environment).

screen shot when installation runs into issue.

14GB isn’t enough. The install is likely failing because of a lack of disk space. You’ll need to allocate at least 60-100GB for the install to succeed.
