hello guys,

first time deploying commvault with nutanix AHV, after deploying the qcow2 frel image the process doesn’t seem to take the deployment script :

CS_IP_OR_FQDN=commserve.domain.local
CS_SHORT_NAME=CommServeClientName
CS_USERNAME=admin
CS_PASSWORD=YourPassword
FREL_CLIENTNAME=FREL-AHV01
ROOT_PASSWORD=StrongRootPassw0rd!

i want to precise that as of now the vm does not take an ip, ipam or dhcp is not configured. root password is not applied, so can’t access the vm, tried to reset it using rd.break or other methods without any success, what’s frustrating is that i have no point that i can use to start troubleshooting.

using CV 11.40

AHV FREL 11.36

Hi, any update on this issue? I’m facing exactly the same issue.
qcow2 Image 11.36 used with AHV v10.3.0.2

Looks like the solution might be for now is to use the FR24 image and update the OS (if you have access to it) and the Commvault software afterwards and open a ticket for the issue with the FR36 version.
