Cisco IM and Presence at EVE-NG

[jayaprakasha94]

Hi,

I am trying install Cisco IM & Presence 12.5 in EVE-NG Emulation.

Even I have enabled KVM in the ISO Image and made it bootable, getting the following error.

I have followed the same procedure as CUCM 12.5 Installation and it's okay. Only facing issue on IM&P server installation.

Please let me know, any special changes required at ISO Image to run in EVE-NG CE.

Thanks.

Only VMware ESXi is supported.

Workaround for your LAB environment: install and configure your new IM&P VM on VMware ESXI (you can install everything and skip or postpone the network configuration) then export VM. You will save and convert the exported disk file to EVE-NG so you can create your new VMs for IM&P. From this part on it will be similar to creating EVE-NG VMs for Expressways.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I could able to install IM&P on VMWare by creating bootable ISO. After the installation completed successfully, I converted the vmdk file into qcow2 as mentioned in above workaround link. But I am getting the error while booting from EVE-NG Lab.

I did the following to convert into KVM

i. uploaded the vmdk file

ii. generated the qcow2 using the following command.

cd /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/cup-12.5.1.12900-25

qemu-img convert -f vmdk -O qcow2 imp.vmdk virtioa.qcow2

/opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions

Still the issue exists. Please help me to resolve.

Thanks.
