Virtual Machine

Supported Hypervisors

Hypervisor Vendor Support Config
HyperV Microsoft yes, via VMDK ova
VirtualBox Oracle yes, via VMDK ova
VMware VMware yes, via VMDK ova

Currently we only publish a VMDK virtual disk due to issues with our previous OVA distribution. We are investigating our options to bring back the OVA distribution, however, the VMDK works for the hypervisors listed above.

Requirements

Using this VMDK in a virtual machine requires the following:

  • Operating system: Other 4.x or later Linux (64-bit)
  • Enabled support for UEFI boot
  • SATA disk controller
  • Minimal of 1GB RAM
  • At least 2x vCPU
  • An assigned network
