Well, I discarded the VM and started over and this time it came up. The only difference I know of is that I removed 2 of the interfaces prior to starting up the OVA for the first time. I have a virtual network environment employing a custom virtual NAT network. Existing systems in the environment are NATing through my physical adapter and have complete internet access. I didn't see the need for the multiple adapters presented in the OVA so I removed them. Perhaps that was a No-No. At any rate, I have the CLI wizard as promised.  P.S. I don't know how to close this thread.
Using the ova and running under VMWare Workstation Pro 12. Started the first vm and after about 10 minutes I got to a prompt. Logged in as root but nothing else happened. Was there some sort of config wizard supposed to run? OneFS Simulator Install Guide suggests this on page 8 but I do not see anything and can't really move forward. Please advise. Thanks.
Where is configuation wizard on OneFS Simulator 8.1?
