CML - Images Status RED

[gmjxo]

Hello All,

I just finished installing CML in a VM using VM Workstating 17 Player, and I am having this error. The ISO image Refplat is set.
This is CML version 2.6.1. Please assist.

Have you verified that the ISO is actually mounted/connected? When you "edit" your VM in VMware workstation player and select your CD rom you should be able to see that the selection box/toggle next to "connected" is enabled under device status. If it is greyed out you can enable "connect at power-on" and reboot the VM. Another option is that the ISO itself is damaged/incomplete. This can be verified by opening it in 7-Zip and selecting "Test" in the top bar.

EDIT: Just checked the documentation for v2.6(I haven't performed a clean install since 2.0) and noticed that you now must copy the refplat files to the disk. Have you performed this step? https://developer.cisco.com/docs/modeling-labs/#!copy-the-refplat-iso-to-disk

Hello Torbjorn,

I deleted the VM and added the ISO in different steps. Previously, I double clicked the OVA file to build the VM which proceeded to boot the VM after the OVA file was imported. Therefore, I had to power down the VM to add the ISO file which populated the Image error above.

I deleted the VM and opened virtual machine which proceeded to steps where I can add the ISO file prior to booting up the machine which was a success, and now the VM is running as it should.
