Question

FortiWLM 8.6-4 on Proxmox 7.2-3

Hello all,

 

I've been trying to config FortiWLM 8.6-4 as a VM in Proxmox 7.2-3 with very different settings. Official FortiWLM Proxmox guide (Fortinet's own guide) isn't available, I've been composing from different sources my own and would love to share also, if I succeeded deploying this in Proxmox.

 

Basics go fine, OVA, VMDK etc images are nicely imported eg. with a qm importdisk 212 forti-wlm-8.6-4build-6-x86_64-disk1.vmdk local-zfs --format qcow2 command to VM id 212 in .qcow2 format and then added as a SCSI or IDE disk.

 

Every time so far, FortiWLM VM ends to a boot loop, last lines before a new reboot in the picture below

Would you have any ideas what to try next? Maybe installing an Ubuntu 16.04 KVM as VM in proxmox and deploy there :)

Update, FortiWLM's virtual image does the same in Virtualbox or Hyper-V as well. Ends to the very same boot loop.
