RouterOS v6 kernel does not support AMD EPYC CPU's, please use CX instances (Intel Xeon based ones), instead of CPX instances which are using AMD EPYC

You can use v7 beta with the CPX instances:

Hello,

thank you for reaching out to us. We just tried with the newest stable version 6.47.7 (https://download.mikrotik.com/routeros/ ... .7.img.zip) and the above mentioned Hetzner manual and CX11 cloud VM and it worked as expected. Please try again.

Yes. We tested on 6.42rc30, instructions available on the wiki page - https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:CHR_GCE

is so difficult to create an iso version of CHR ?
because some KVM like ramnode dont allow to use virtual disk only iso

Google cloud requires features that are not possible to back-port to the version of the kernel that is used in the CHR.

Ok, the web interface does not suggest any name, the VM name field is blank when deploying an OVA: Is that a change that has been made? Or maybe it depends on VMware version and/or procedure used? In my case it suggested a name that included the version number. Please try the last version I posted ...

The OVA has been updated to exclude version number from the VM name - https://www.mikrotik.com/download/share ... 6_40_3.ova

Yes. The .ova of course can have a version in its name, but the name suggested in the wizard when importing the .ova is better left generic. (and the note probably as well, although that can easily be edited afterwards when desired) Ok, the web interface does not suggest any name, the VM name field...

So you're saying that we should put a generic name inside the VMX, right? File name of the OVA can contain the version number right? 'displayName' and 'annotation' should just contain name without the version? Update. Did a test of my own with the previously published https://www.mikrotik.com/downlo...

Regarding OVF. You really think there's a "one for all" configuration that will satisfy most of the users? Users can adjust parameters after they installed the OVF. That is not a problem. MikroTik should be able to define parameters like disk size, amount of memory, required devices etc a...

Regarding OVF. There might be various scenarious how our users would use the CHR.

Not a very elegant solution, but for ocasional use try 'clusterssh'. For a more robust management API or scripting will be your best bet.

You can also set up SSH keys and issue commands via SSH:
