Is possible install EVE-NG under KVM on CENTOS7

Before posting something, READ the changelog, WATCH the videos, howto and provide following:
Your install is: Bare metal, ESXi, what CPU model, RAM, HD, what EVE version you have, output of the uname -a and any other info that might help us faster.

Is possible install EVE-NG under KVM on CENTOS7

Post by gcastbr » Sun Mar 03, 2019 6:11 pm

Hi,

I would like to know if is possible install EVE-NG under KVM on CENTOS 7 instead using vmware workstation. VMware can allocate only 64gb memory and I have a server running centos with 128GB memory and I would like to allocate this memory to EVE-NG.

In a word no.

Check the install guides for options:

https://www.eve-ng.net/documentation/in ... equirement

Or the cookbook.

Ubuntu bare metal is the way to go for max performance.

Yes you can from ISO and choose Bare install (not VM)
So far I found one problem - juniper vMX is booting very slow ~ 1h. Same images on laptop's vmware workstation have no problem
On 2 years old eve-ng version I had no such problems

Officially EVE on Centos is not supported in any way.
But your vMX slow start is not an EVE problem, but your HW issues
