Install ISE 2.7 into Proxmox VE 8.2.2

[dazmac]

Hi All,

I am trying to install ISE 2.7 into Proxmox VE 8.2.2.
I downloaded the iso image from Cisco.
Created the VM.
Ran the VM and logged into the console.
Selected 1 Cisco ISE Installation (Keyboard/Monitor)

Received an error message

ERROR: UNSUPPORTED HARDWARE DETECTED!
System Halted.

I am trying to install ISE 2.7 in a test environment then upgrade it to version 3.1

Any ideas how to continue to install ISE 2.7

You will have to ask Cisco if this software is supported to run inside a KVM VM.
Maybe it is only supported on VMWare?

According to the system requirements page for 2.7, KVM/QEMU is supported, as is Hyper-V
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/do...e27/b_ise_InstallationGuide27_chapter_01.html
Likewise for 3.1
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/do...de31/b_ise_InstallationGuide31_chapter_2.html

Have you checked that all the system requirements/settings are met?

Otherwise, if it is just for testing (and your production is running on either esx or hyper-v) one route you could at least consider would be to run it with nested virtualization [1] (aka, running esx or hyper-v in a proxmox-VM). It won't be the fastest, but since it is the update-process that you're interested in, speed shouldn't matter too much, right?
