 Virtual Machine (OVA)
 =====================
 
 Wazuh provides a pre-built virtual machine image in Open Virtual Appliance (OVA) format. This can be directly imported to VirtualBox or other OVA compatible virtualization systems. Take into account that this VM only runs on 64-bit systems with x86_64/AMD64 architecture. It does not provide high availability and scalability out of the box. However, these can be implemented by using :doc:`distributed deployment </installation-guide/index>`.

+VM fails to start on AMD processors with VMware
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+**Issue**:
+
+-  After importing the Wazuh OVA into VMware Workstation on a host with an AMD processor, the VM fails to start with the error:
+
+   .. code-block:: none
+
+      The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. Power off or reset the virtual machine.
+
+**Workaround**:
+
+#. Locate and edit the VM’s ``.vmx`` file after importing the OVA.
+#. Add the following lines to the end of the file to resolve compatibility issues between the VM and AMD processors.
+
+   .. code-block:: ini
