I tried to install the demo image SCDemoVM on an ASR1001-X with default hardware.
8 GB on the built-in route processor on the Cisco ASR 1001, 1001-X and 1002-X, partitioned: 1 GB for bootflash; 7 GB for mass storage
At install time I recognized that even a ASR1001-X can't handle the Demo VM.
Requirements of 8 GB Memory and 20 GB disk do not match with system. At least the disk is the first problem.
Buying a NIM SSD is not an option. I need to know, if there are known options with a really tiny VM.
E.g. like the one from the container ecosystems like Alpine Linux or maybe another one.
Maybe there is something prepackaged like the SCDemoVM ?
The full-blown Images are usually not a good idea on a system with limited resources.
I think there are some base requirements for the KVM Image to work inside the Routers.
Are there some more information available ?
best regards
