: Create a directory for the node (e.g., /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/dellos10-10.5.5 ).

This file serves as the base virtual hard disk drive (HDD) for the OS10 virtual machine. Unlike standard firmware images used for physical switches, this VMDK (Virtual Machine Disk) file contains the core file system architecture required to run OS10 on a hypervisor. It is typically distributed as part of a larger virtualization bundle (e.g., OS10_Virtualization_10.x.x.xV.zip ) which includes two other essential files:

: The default credentials for the virtual appliance are admin / admin . System Requirements os10-disk-1.0.0.vmdk

: Defines the specific switch hardware being simulated (e.g., S6010-ON). Role in Networking Labs

: Each OS10 switch instance typically requires at least 4GB of RAM . : Create a directory for the node (e

: Practice CLI commands and RESTCONF/SNMP interfaces in a virtual lab.

: Used to boot the installation process. It is typically distributed as part of a

: On the first boot, the appliance uses the installer disk to populate the sataa.qcow2 (formerly the 1.0.0.vmdk) with the OS10 system files.

Running the OS10 virtual appliance requires significant resources due to its complex hardware abstraction layer:

: A 64-bit x86 CPU with at least 16GB of total system RAM is recommended for running multiple nodes.
