Link/process to download vNIOS and virtual Reporting software

[#1]

Hi All,

I have to implement vNIOS(dns,dhcp) and virtual reporting appliance, please help from where I would be able to download these two software. I came across one link on infoblox 'try now' from there I have downloaded infoblox demo software,  Is this the same link to download software for production implementations?

The vNIOS software that I have downloaded do not contains temp license to reporting, is there separate software for virtual reporting appliance?

Thanks,

Sachin

Hello Sachin,

Yes, you need a different ova for reporting appliances. you may utilize the same download link received to your email and choose appliance in Ínfoblox Reporting" as shown in the table there.

Please watch the below to get detailed steps for instillation

Thanks Syam,

The video link you shared is very helpful.

I have downloaded infoblox reporting ova from product evaluation portal.

Same ova downloaded from product evaluation portal can be used for production deployment or separate link is for production ova?

Thanks,

Hello Sachin,

Unfortunately I'm not sure if they are the same or not. I would ideally compare the md5 values of the ova files and will redeploy if they are not same or get a confirmation from the account team representative who helped you procure the license.

Syam.

It is usable for production purposes, it's actually the same appliance that is used with the 1GB/day appliance. If you indend to do more than 1GB/day it may not be the best option. There are other models with more CPU/Memory that are better equipped for larger indexing volumes.

Hello,  Can you help me with installtion error I am getting, please?  I downloaded the OVA file and created a VM for reporting.  I log in and try to set temp_license, it errors: " you must provision the reporting disk before adding a license to the reporting server".

I read before the VMDKs are included in OVA file.  where I can get the reporting disk?

Thanks

Hello HNiroomand,

Please review the KB article from #5877: Unable to install license on reporting appliances from Infoblox support website which would help you with this.

Best regards,

Thanks for quick reply,  It seems like I need to add 2 disks.  That is what I will do next.  I only had one disk (1 TB) .

Thanks again,

Hajar
