XGFirewall installation on KVM - System shuts down

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.
