Versa Director : No bootable device

Post by zlimvos » Fri Feb 07, 2020 5:34 pm

Hi all
I would really appreciate any pointers for below:
I am trying to run a Versa networks lab on EVE-NG Community. I followed https://www.eve-ng.net/index.php/docume ... ks-sd-wan/ and everything worked very smooth.
However when i run my headend devices :
- Versa Analytics runs fine
- Versa Controller (vflex) runs fine
- Versa director does not boot with 'no bootable device' message:

Code: Select all

............. No configuration methods succeeded (http://ipxe.org/040ee119)
No more network devices
Booting from ROM...
iPXE (PCI 00:04.0) starting execution...ok
iPXE initialising devices...ok

Configuring (net1 50:00:00:08:00:01)................. No configuration methods s

No more network devices
No bootable device.
Here are the (default) qemu options: -machine type=pc,accel=kvm -vga std -usbdevice tablet -boot order=dc -cpu host
Any ideas or indication how to troubleshoot this? it's a pitty cause all the rest Versa images run fine, but can't run a lab without Director!

You simply wrongly made image.
Recheck all steps, if filename inside of folder is virtioa.qcow2

Code: Select all

root@eve-ng:/opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/versadir-16.1R2S9# ls
virtioa.qcow2
root@eve-ng:/opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/versadir-16.1R2S9#

Will try to redo steps, but it seems all ok:
root@eve-ng:/opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/versafvnf-16.1R2S11# ls
virtioa.qcow2
root@eve-ng:/opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/versadir-16.1R2S11# ls
virtioa.qcow2
root@eve-ng:/opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/versaana-16.1R2S11# ls
virtioa.qcow2

I repeat the steps and it is the same:

grub rescue> for analytics and flexvnf with 4 gig ram and 4 cpu

on director now it says: see attachment.

I give him 8 gig of ram and 4 cpu

Any other suggestions?
