To create the vm's with the different guest operating systems, we are going to install 'virt-manager'.
With Virtual Machine Manager ( http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com) we can create our KVM just following the steps of the application. It's a graphical way to create the vm's instead do it with commands in the terminal.
To create them we have to do it from localhost (QEMU) not from localhost (QEMU Usermode)
The steps to create the Virtual Machine are:#
- Click on the button “Create a new virtual machine”
- We have to enter a name for the vm and choose the way we want to install the operating system
- Then we choose the operating system type and version
- Choose memory (RAM) and CPU settings
- Create a disk image in the computer hard disk.
The virtual machine is going to be saved in the path: /var/lib/libvirt/image
In this project we are going to develop two vm's, one with Windows as guest operating system, and the other one with Linux.
Now we are going to explain the setting of the differents vm's.
