R77.30 mgmt VM in VMware

[ashish_solanki1]

Hi All,

I am trying to setup lab for MDS in VMware with R77.30 take 22 while accessing smart domain manager getting error attached with this post and need your help to sort this out.

I have assigned 80GB of hard drive and 3GB RAM to VM.

Let me know if any other info is needed.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi,

minimum recommended system requirements for R77.30 MDS are 4GB RAM afaik, maybe more ressources will solve the issue. 

In the subject line you are talking about R80.20 but in the body you say R77.30, can you please clarify which version you are using?


Best Regards

From my own personal experience, if we're talking R80.20, you probably want 8-16gb of RAM if you've got the resources.

HI,

I am not able to install MDS in R77.20 and R77.30 getting attached errors. Also, I'm using trial version didn't know do I need a separate license or this is OK with trial license.

Resources that I've assigned to VM are 100GB space and 4GB RAM these are for R77.20 and R77.30.

Let me know if more info is needed.

Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Weissl,

We have R77.30 management and we want to migrate it to VM.

Kindly suggest, what would be the required Processor Core, RAM and Disc space?

You can use the Smart-1 datasheet as a starting point reference.

What are the specifications of the source system?

Better upgrade to a supported version !

I changed the subject of your message to match the actual version.
This is most likely the solution to your issue on a fresh install of R77.x management:
