Zabbix Appliance issue with Vmware

[[email protected]]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to use the Zabbix appliance open virtualization format image (.ovf) to create a VMware ESXi host, but it ends with an error. The error occurs while validating and making ready the image for deployment. Please help me with this unknown error message. It's not giving me any extra information about the error. Let me share the images for more clarification. Here are the steps I am taking:












UP TO THIS POINT, THINGS RUN NORMALLY, BUT HERE IS WHERE I SEE THE UNKNOWN ERROR

as your screenshots clearly show - you are using VMware but for reason unknown you are using .OVF template - not designed for VMware...

Please try to download the VMware designed appliance:

Not installed on esxi 6.5. At this point it gets stuck and nothing else happens.

yeah I'm not responsible for these appliances or any zabbix component while on that matter but feel free to open JIRA issue for appliances to zabbix official support here: https://support.zabbix.com/projects/...=allopenissues

looking closer at your problem - it seems you're still not using the correct appliance as I was able to start up the appliance under this link:

https://cdn.zabbix.com/zabbix/appliances/stable/6.0/6.0.4/zabbix_appliance-6.0.4-vmx.tar.gz

under oracle VirtualBox just fine:




also the disk was attached without issues:
