XGFirewall installation on KVM - System shuts down

Hi Rene Neumann 

Hope you are following the steps as per below help guide for installation:

https://docs.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/18.0/Help/en-us/webhelp/virtual-software-appliance/nsg/sfos/tasks/vs_KVMInstallation.html

If yes will you please share the configuration details of XG inside the KVM? Settings related to disk, NIC etc.

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 Rene Neumann 

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
