Hi, I try to install Cloud Hosted Router on VMware ESXi 6.x
But It is not working.
What settings do I Need for the Virtual Machine?

When I add a new VirtualMachine
Choose custom
Choose Other 64 bits Operating System
Choose existing disk and link it to the VMDK file
When I run the Virtual Machine I get the error below.

It looks like the storage where you are trying to keep the VMDK is full.

We have CHR running on ESXi 6.x without any issues.

The storage is certainly not full.
I have 1.1TB free
I also try this on my second VMware server.
Same error

Let me guess, you just took .vmdk as downloaded from MikroTik, uploaded it to ESXi and added it to VM in default IDE mode (ESXi won’t allow you to change it to SCSI). I had the same problem when I did it this way.

Convert .vmdk to SCSI first and it will work.

Yes, Great,
Thanks,
That is the solution
