Solved: Unable to open Ontap simulator 9.10.1 ova file in Vmware workstation pro for Linux, version 16.2.3

Hi,

I am unable to open Ontap Simulator 9.10.1 (vsim-netapp-DOT9.10.1-cm_nodar.ova) on Vmware workstation Pro for Linux (version VMware-Workstation-Full-16.2.3-19376536.x86_64). Can someone check this and let me know?

Thanks.

Hi @subinhameed

Are you getting any particular error messages or outputs that you might be able to share? Other folks on this forum might be able to help a bit further.

However, I suspect you're experiencing issues as we don't specifically support running the ONTAP Simulator OVA on VMware Workstation for Linux. We support VMware Workstation on Windows and VMware Fusion on MacOSC.
