virtual cat 9k with CML/DNAC

[Mike McFarlin]

Is there any way of randomizing the hardware serial number of a virtual cat 9k in CML?

I'm trying to lab DNAC with a pair of 9ks. DNAC won't complete the import of the second 9k because of serial number conflict.

Thanks,

Mike McFarlin

I've run into the same issue and seems in the mean time a resolution for this is available. https://www.ciscolive.com/c/dam/r/ciscolive/emea/docs/2024/pdf/DEVNET-1441.pdf

Gave a try and it works perfectly. Under the node configuration file select the conf/vswitch.xml and edit the serial number. It's to be done before the vm is created.
