| Error | Probable Cause | Resolution | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | during import | The ESXi version is older than 6.5 | Upgrade ESXi or ensure the OVA uses SHA1 (though 8.7.0 requires SHA256 support). | | "Virtual machine is not 64-bit capable" | Intel VT-X/AMD-V is disabled in the BIOS of the host server | Enable hardware virtualization in the BIOS settings and restart the host. | | Node shuts down 3 seconds after start (Lab environment) | KVM acceleration missing or incorrect qemu-img conversion | Run kvm-ok to verify. Re-run the conversion and fix permissions again. | | Invalid OVA file signature | The download was interrupted or the OVA is corrupted | Re-download the OVA file from the HPE Aruba Support Portal. | | License Validation Failed | Orchestrator cannot reach the cloud portal (port 443 blocked) | Check firewall rules; ensure the VM has a valid route to the internet. | Define valid NTP servers

Verify the template details, verifying the publisher certificates and the version string reads 8.7.0.

Post-deploy checklist

The deployment of virtual appliances in enterprise environments demands precision, optimized resource allocation, and a deep understanding of infrastructure dependencies. Virtual appliances distributed via the Open Virtualization Format (OVF) or Open Virtual Appliance (.ova) archive format simplify this process by packaging the operating system, application files, and hardware configurations into a single deployable file.

Skip the OS installation and partitioning. optimized resource allocation
