thanks for the feedback.

The server hosting EVE is an opta core with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2667 v3 @ 3.20GHz, it should support vSRX images.

Can I change any parameters on EVE or on image script launcher to guarantee the needed resource to run vSRX rel 19.1 R1.6 ?

Thanks in advance

Version vSRX 19.1R1.6 works just nice !
BUT ON EVE Bare !!!
Not esxi EVE

Just a bit needs to change on template when you add the node, vSRX-NG !
1. Use qemu 2.12 or 3.1, 3.1 is better and faster.

2, and in qemu line at the end add "-cpu host"
-machine type=pc-1.0,accel=kvm -cpu qemu64,+ssse3,+sse4.1,+sse4.2,+x2apic,+aes,pclmulqdq -serial mon:stdio -nographic -nodefconfig -nodefaults -rtc base=utc -cpu host

Hi UD,

Please can you let me know Qemu 3.1 version added in Eve-community version or not.

no, Qemu 3.1 is not in the Community.
But you can use 2.12

And remember only BARE EVE runs vSRX 19.1

ESXI or VM ware workstation versions, simply does not

Uldis,
I did fresh install of eve-ng pro in VM. I see qemu version 2.5 when issue qemu-system-x86_64 --version. Does it mean that we need to install version 3.1? Or how can i check if its included?

Thanks.

Jan
