ACS 5.4 Installation on VMware Workstation

[turbo_engine26]

Hi all,

I just read and followed the instructions in this discussion thread https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3714114#3714114.

However, i got this error in the uploaded screenshot.

VM Settings:

Memory: 2048 GB

HDD: 70 GB

What is the problem?

Thanks

The minimum required HDD Size for a VM installation is 500GB.  Try increasing the HD size and reinstalling.

Thanks for your reply.

Please take another look at the link that i've posted as there was a debate regarding the HDD size. ACS can be installed with a minimum of 70 GB (even though it is officially mentioned as 500 GB). Another thing, you didn't provide a visible proof if the HDD size (of 500 GB) is the direct cause of this issue. Please send me a thread or article that says that this error is caused by non-allocating 500 GB HDD size, then i will see what i can do.

I got this to install using a USB3 external HD using 150GB create all at one time drive. did not split up files but built it as one big file with 4gb ram and 2 cores with 1 cpu each. Able to access the CentOS setup for static ip address, domain, etc. My problem is that I am unable to web into the gui.

The application is running fine with me using only 70 GB. My problem was the OS. I chose MS-DOS by mistake instead of CentOS.
