-To deploy an Infoblox Reporting server in a lab, you will need a different OVA file from the one that you use to deploy the Grid Master/Grid Member VMs. This can be downloaded from the Infoblox support portal.+If you are deploying NIOS 9.0 or higher, NIOS and Network Discovery use the same OVA. To deploy an Infoblox Discovery server in a lab, if you are deploying NIOS 8.6 or earlier, you will need a different OVA file from the one that you use to deploy the Grid Master/Grid Member VMs. This can be downloaded from the Infoblox support portal. 
  
-When you deploy the OVA file, select the apporpriate model number (e.g. ND-V1405) and remember your choice.+When you deploy the OVA file, select the appropriate model number (e.g. ND-V1405) and remember your choice.
  
-When the VM deploys, it will have 8 CPU cores and 64 GB of RAM. For a lab (e.g. VMware Workstation on your laptop) reduce this to something sensible such as 2 CPU cores and 8 GB RAM (or even less? I got it to boot with 1 CM and 2Gb of RAM. Howver, I didn't 'test' it much after boot). +When the VM deploys, it will have 8 CPU cores and 64 GB of RAM.
