Setting up a kernel-based virtual machine (KVM) guest
The following is a high-level overview of the steps required for setting up a KVM guest.
To set up a KVM guest
- Before creating KVM guests, ensure that CPU and memory resources are available to create KVM guests on all nodes in the cluster.
- Make sure that the required KVM RPMs are installed on the hosts.
- Make sure that the libvirtd service is running on the hosts where KVM guests are to be created.
- Create the KVM guests.
For network configuration:
- Install the operating system in the KVM guests.
- Repeat the above steps for all KVM guests that you want to be a part of the cluster.
- Install VCS on all the KVM guests.
See Installing and configuring Cluster Server in a kernel-based virtual machine (KVM) environment.
- Configure the VCS resources that you want VCS to manage. For VCS documentation:
