Nexus 9K or NXOS 9000 failed. trying to read config file from on VMWare
When trying to load a Nexus OVA in my lab VMWare cluster I was getting the “failed. trying to read config file” every time I reloaded the switch. I figured out I needed to add a single line to the config:
1 | boot nxos bootflash:/nxos.9.2.4.bin |
My full base config is:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 | hostname nexus9k-template no password strength-check ip route 0.0.0.0/0 10.0.50.1 vrf management interface mgmt0 vrf member management ip address 10.0.50.26/24 feature ssh vrf cont management ip route 0.0.0.0/0 10.0.50.1 boot nxos bootflash:/nxos.9.2.4.bin |
