XGFirewall installation on KVM - System shuts down

Rene Neumann

Hello,

 

I'm new to Sophos Firewall. I try to deploy the Firewall on a KVM hypervisor. Based on the documentation do I fulfill all the requirements. The issue I have is that VM shutdown after a min or so without an error.

I have no idea how to troubleshoot this issue. Below is the console output

  Booting `18_0_0_379'

Doing Appliance Specific Setting
Loading firstboot configuration
Installing default config
System will poweroff
The system is going down NOW!
Sent SIGTERM to all processes
Sent SIGKILL to all processes
[   74.304811] reboot: Power down

Any help would be apprichiated.

    Hello,

    Yes I saw the document and based my configuration on the document. I use command-line tools only so I use to setup the VM virsh-install. Below is my setup command:

    virt-install \
       --virt-type kvm \
       --name sophosxg \
       --cpu host-passthrough \
       --ram 4096 --vcpus 1 \
       --network bridge=br1 \
       --network bridge=br0 \
       --disk path=PRIMARY-DISK.qcow2,format=qcow2,device=disk,bus=virtio \
       --disk path=AUXILIARY-DISK.qcow2,format=qcow2,device=disk,bus=virtio \
       --import \
       --graphics vnc,listen=0.0.0.0 --noautoconsole \
       --autostart --check-cpu

     

    The installation works as mentioned and I can connect to the console after the VM is created. When I restart the VM then I get everytime a step further, but then after a one minute it shuts down again.

    Hi  

    Instead of setup command if you try the steps via UI as per help guide then are you getting same observation ?

    Hello,

    apologize I figured out that issue yesterday. It was completely unrelated, an external process was stopping all VM's.

    That issue is resolved, currently has another one whereby the Setup Wizzard never finishes applying the finial settings. I will see if I can figure that out.

    Thanks
