Guest has not initialized the display (yet).
Operation failed: Internal Exception.

VM 起動時です。
ついでに  UEFI Secure Boot だと  Operation failed: Internal Exception. です。

このログみればいいよ~とか、このコマンドを cvm で叩いてみてくれとか、見当がつきません。

CE

AHV 10.3.1.1

AOS 7.3.1.1

Are you trying this from prism central? Which version of prism central? Does it work directly from Prism Element (do not access prism element via prism central to test, do it directly).

A slightly different version is in place, but the following workaround has already been applied:

nutanix@NTNX-b93dc0a8-A-CVM:10.233.100.21:~$ acli vm.on Windows11-UEFI
Windows11-UEFI: pending
Windows11-UEFI: complete

Guest has not initialized the display (yet).

The VM Windows11-UEFI has no CD-ROM and no hard disk attached.
However, “Start PXE over IPv6” should at least appear on the screen.

When using Legacy BIOS, the VM can be started without any issues.

Version: pc.7.3.1.3
NCC Version: 5.2.1
LCM Version: 3.3
All operations are being performed from Prism Element.

I wonder if things would work if I roll AOS back to the 6.x series… though that would mean rebuilding everything.

Now that this workaround is functioning correctly,
https://github.com/ktelep/NTNX_Scripts/tree/main/CE/ahv10_commercial_workaround
(modified AHV 10.0.1.1 4831838208k → AHV 10.3.1.1 268435456k), as a result, the UEFI + Secure Boot boot behavior has improved from "Operation failed: Internal Exception." to "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)."
I tried obtaining the launch options from the AHV /var/log/libvirt/qemu/ logs.
(However, -m size=16777216k,slots=240,maxmem=268435456k is forcibly overwritten to -m size=16777216k,slots=240,maxmem=128G inside qemu-kvm-frodo.)

From this, is there anything we can infer about "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)."?
