CHR on XCP-NG 8.2.1

Fri May 05, 2023 1:43 am

Hi guys,
I hope you're doing well. I have been trying to Import the OVA image of CHR v7.x and CHR v6.49.7 in my XCP-NG servers, but every time I receive a message saying "Failed to Import". Any idea what could be causing this? I can import images from any image but Mikrotik's CHR. I also tried with VMDK and VMDK image with the same problem

Thanks,

This was originally used on XCP-ng Center, If you are using Xen Orchestra it will be similar.

Create New VM on XCP-ng host

Select "other install media"

Select any ISO to continue (It will not be used)

Set desired CPU, Disk, Memory parameters

Make note of what you name the virtual disk as you will need it in a later step

Uncheck "Start the new VM automatically"

Click "Create Now"

Log into the XCP-ng host server

wget "https://download.mikrotik.com/routeros/ ... .8.img.zip"

unzip chr*

xe vdi-list name-label=whatever-you-named-vm-disk

Copy the UUID of vm's VDI obtained from the step above and use in the step below

xe vdi-import uuid=UUID-From-Above filename=chr*.img

Boot VM and eject ISO
