The disk image in the OVA is VMDK, which I believe they did so it would run on VirtualBox or VMWare out of the box. I've used vbox-manage to convert it to VHD for Hyper-V, every one since 1.3.something. Vbox-manage can also convert to QCOW, RAW, etc. It's really quite easy.

Unpack the OVA and take the disk image out of it, convert to qcow2 with qemu-img tool. Create a VM with any size hard disk.  Remove the hard disk from the VM, but don't delete it. (remove once, not twice).  Replace the image file with the one you extracted and converted, then add the disk back into the VM.

If you're using the lvm-thin storage type, create the VM on local storage first and then migrate it to local-lvm after you've got it working.

We use proxmox as well.  Could you explain in a bit more detail how
you loaded cnMaestro on it?

Hi Everyone,



We have turned up the on premise version of cnMaestro and it turns up like a charm.  Kudos to the Cambium team! We use PROXMOX, a free virtualization product. All we had to do is untar the OVA pull out the vmdk and convert to
qcow2.



So, we have been a CNUT shop.  CNUT works well through web proxy and we have never seen a need to put a mgmnt IP on the SM.  Now that we want to use the
on premise, we are taking our entire network up to 15.1.2.1 and we are
enabling remote management on the WAN for NAT SM and turning on ICMP.  For bridged we are enabling public access and DHCP so it grabs an address for management.  ALL is working well BUT we need to log into each and every SM
and make these changes.



My question is, is there an easier way?  We have a custom r/w string in each
SM, but no IP access, just WEB PROXY.



Any help is appreciated, we have 100's of AP and 1000's of SM in the field.







Cheers,
