on how to add the second virtual disk for log collection in an environment?
Use virt-install (from the virt-install package) to create the VM.
: This image is frequently used in lab environments like EVE-NG . To deploy it there, you must create a specific folder in /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/ and ensure the filename is renamed to virtioa.qcow2 for the emulator to recognize it. panoramakvm1004qcow2+updated
If you are already running an older 10.0.x version, you generally use the Software tab in the Panorama GUI. However, if you are performing a base image upgrade, ensure you follow these steps: Perform a Device State backup in Panorama.
Configure the virtual machine with adequate resources (typically 4 vCPUs, 16GB RAM, and necessary disk space).
Deploying Palo Alto Networks Panorama on Kernel-based Virtual Machines (KVM) provides network administrators with a centralized, hypervisor-native management plane. When working with the foundational virtual disk image, ensuring that your environment is fully updated and appropriately provisioned is critical for handling continuous log ingest and device coordination.

⚠️ Proceed with extreme caution – verify source and modifications before any use.
For those unfamiliar with the term, KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is an open-source virtualization module that allows Linux to operate as a hypervisor. Panorama KVM 1004 QCOW2 is a specific implementation of KVM, optimized for high-performance computing, and packaged in the QCOW2 (QEMU Copy-on-Write) format. This format enables efficient storage and management of virtual machine (VM) images, making it an attractive choice for organizations seeking to streamline their virtualization infrastructure.
