Introduction
ESXi 7.0 U1 compatibility (VM 18) to assure maximum compatibility with customers’s VM infrastructure. ESXi 7.0 U1 is the first version that is compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.
This virtual machine meets all necessary requirements to run the nGenius software installer successfully. VPMA-49 is available as an OVF template. It is stored at CRT-SRV-A-NAS
The template VPMA-49v1 uses RHCK and template VPMA-49v2 uses UEK. The template is based on Oracle Linux 9.2.
Solution
Virtual Machine
| Resources | |
|---|---|
| CPU | 8 |
| Memory | 64GB |
| Disk 1 | 75GB |
| Disk 2 | 500GB |
Note: nGeniusONE installation requires a minimum of 8 CPU, 64GB RAM and a system disk of 75GB. After installation the resources can be re-configured. The disks are provisioned as Thick Provision.
ISO
Start from the Oracle Linux 8.9 ISO (OL8U9 x86_64-boot.iso). nGeniusONE supports all subversions of Oracle Linux 8. Be aware, a "sudo dnf update" might cause the sytem to become a more recent version. Netscout recommends the use of the Redhat Compatible Kernel. Although the filename of the ISO indicates the installation of the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel it installs the Redhat Compatible Kernel. This iso has al the necessery utilities onboard to switch from RCK to UEK and vice versa.
