Install of CUCM 8.6.1.10000-43 on VMWare fails on installing progmeter

Question

Hi, Everyone
First time post here, and first time installing CUCM (any version).
I built a VM using a downloaded OVA template for CUCM 6.5.1.10000-43, and the install fails with a critical stop.  Once I figured out how to dump logs to the virtual serial port, and looked at the install.log, I found the following information that looks like where the install failed (these are the only LVL::Error and LVL::Critical messages in the log).
It looks like install failed to install the progmeter application component.
Does anyone know what this app does?  Any ideas on why it might have failed to install and possible workaround?
I may already have the answer to the question, as I'm attempting install on a VM running on VMWare vServer (rather than ESX/ESXi/vSphere).  It is possible that simply being on an unsupported configuration is my problem.  I'm trying to work with the equipment immediately available to me, but fully understand that I may have set myself up for failure by even attempting this.
Any help is appreciated greatly.
Regards,
Sean C

Hi,
Has anyone found a fix for this?
I am trying to run call manager 8.6.1 on the following enviroment

In regards to vsergeyey reponse I have checked the network adapter and this is flexible.
I have run the OVA template firstly before mounting the image
I have tried installing numerous times.
Each and every time near the "Installing Database Component" I get the following error;
