Hi
Thanks for update, great to hear that. But I downloaded 15.1F4 vMX from
juniper.net and very disappointed as:
1) There is no OVA images in .tgz. Just *.img, *.tgz which are useless for
VMware. I can convert them to VMDK but come on I want official OVA for
supported product, not dirty solutions
2) installation doc called 'VMX_Release_Notes_Installation_Guide_Beta.pdf'
(see keyword: Beta :) ) doesn't mentioned anything related to VMware ESXi
just KVM & Ubuntu shit.

Above is regarding vmx-15.1F4.15.tgz (size=1561459359)

Hi
Thanks for this hint. Finally these guide looks What I'm looking for
regarding documentation.
But still TGZ package doesn't have files which I'm looking and above guide
referring them - *.vmdk files :(

Page 24:
Table 7: vMX Package Contents

vmdk/jinstall64-vmx*.vmdk Software image file for VCP.
vmdk/vmxhdd.vmdk Software image file for VCP file storage.
vmdk/vFPC_*.vmdk
vmdk/metadata_usb.vmdk Virtual hard disk with bootstrapping information

Look what we have in F4 vMX TGZ from juniper.net

~/download$ ls -la *.tgz
-rw--- 1 robert users 1561459359 Dec 29 06:36 vmx-15.1F4.15.tgz
~/download$ tar zxf vmx-15.1F4.15.tgz
~/download$ cd vmx-15.1F4-3
~/download/vmx-15.1F4-3$ find ./ -type f | wc -l
  94
~/download/vmx-15.1F4-3$ find ./ -type f | grep vmdk
~/download/vmx-15.1F4-3$

Thanks again. We found out from our MRV rep that the hardware only supports up 
to 4.1.8. Oh well.

Thanks!

Hi Dale/Robert,

One thing I noticed missing in the Vmware document/procedure appeared
to be the process for using SR-IOV with Vmware.

Do we just follow the Vmware docs on this and the vPFE will pickup the
virtual functions or is this not supported yet?

Cheers,

Mark
