Hi, I'm still learning, wanted to get one up and runing in Hyper-V together with a Fortigate or 2.
(on a local Windows 10 machine)


I followed https://fortinetweb.s3.amazonaws.com/docs.fortinet.com/v2/attachments/9c527bde-cce0-11e8-8784-00505692583a/FortiAnalyzer-HyperV-VM-Install-Guide.pdf 


Dowloaded vm from https://support.fortinet.com/Download/VMImages.aspx 7.03

 

Reinstalled 3 times, didnt find any guide for 7.0x. Video's just show to log into gui after adding HDD and booting up.

Tried a execute sql-local rebuild-db, and after

At shutdown and the dots counting up, it always ends with Failed! =/ 

I guess all my questions are wrong, but
As they have 7.03 for hyper-v i guess its supported? OR should I try another version? or vm platform?
Tried google the errors. reset system all-settings. How do I mount /var?

Hello,

It looks like the FAZ can't detect the file system.
Did you check the command execute lvm info?
If disks show there but the space is not used, you can try execute lvm extend.
If no disks show up with that command, you'll probably need to change the VM configuration - If a disk doesn't show in execute lvm, it's not visible to FAZ OS.
