Install on a virtual machine

Last updated: 2026-07-16

The ISO installer covers all major hypervisors: VMware Workstation and ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, KVM, and Proxmox VE. Both Ubuntu and Debian variants of the ISO are supported.

Before you begin

  • Download the ISO variant that matches your OS choice — Auto-install (Ubuntu) for default partitions, or Manual-install (Ubuntu/Debian) when you need custom partitions.
  • Prepare a VM sized per Server requirements, with a bridged network adapter.

Steps

  1. 1

    Create the VM

    Create a new Linux VM in your hypervisor. Attach the Dromlik ISO as the boot media. Set the network adapter to bridged so the PBX gets a routable address on your LAN.

  2. 2

    Boot from the ISO

    Power on the VM. The Dromlik installer starts automatically. Pick Install Dromlik PBX.

  3. 3

    Choose the disk layout

    With the auto-install ISO the installer uses the whole disk. With the manual-install ISO you can create separate partitions for /var/log and the recording store.

  4. 4

    Wait for the install to finish

    Installation takes 5–15 minutes depending on disk speed. The VM reboots automatically when it's done.

  5. 5

    Note the IP address

    After reboot the console shows the PBX's DHCP/static IP and the admin URL https://<ip>:8088.

  6. 6

    Continue to activation

    Open the admin URL from a workstation on the same network and follow Activate and initial setup.
