Deploy, license, and validate HPE Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager 6.14 on Proxmox VE KVM. Use when sizing the appliance, driving the VGA-only first-boot wizard, fixing a GRUB menu that never boots, importing an HTTPS certificate, or using the REST API.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

> **STATUS: draft (v0.1.0).** The procedure below was executed end-to-end once,
> on **CPPM 6.14.0.371380** as a **C1000V**, on Proxmox VE 9.2. Every claim in

> **[unverified]**. It needs a repeat run — and ideally one non-C1000V flavor —

## Overview

> **The ClearPass 6.14 KVM image only boots under UEFI. The installation guide
> never says so, and the failure mode is silent.** Its GRUB menu entry calls
> `linuxefi`/`initrdefi`, which do not exist in the BIOS (`i386-pc`) build of
> GRUB 2.06. Under SeaBIOS the appliance reaches its GRUB menu, fails every boot

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mechubsec/fwskillsshare/clearpass-proxmox-deploy@sha256:7d48cfd89d81a2b0

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2.1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
