Page Under Development
EDB has two User #? servers for creating virtual networks for development and testing. Each server has a total of 32 cores, 132GB of RAMRandom Access Memory and 11TB of storage.
Creating a Virtual Machine
- Login to the desired server (foxtrot or tango)
- Allocate LVM storage for the project (typically under the /vm directory)
- Use a separate directory for each VM
- Create a disk file for the VM
- .
- .
- Start virt-manager (If the GUIGraphical User Interface window doesn't come up, make sure you have X11 forwarding enabled or use ssh -X <hostname> when connecting to the server.)
- Click on New, enter the name of the VM, select Import existing disk image, and then click on Forward.
- On this last menu:
- select Customize configuration before install
- Under advanced options, set the network for the primary network interface (eth0 on Linux)
- Select Set a fixed MACApple Operating System address
- Then set the Virt Type to kvm and the appropriate architecture
- Click on Finish
- The next menu shows the hardware configured for the VM.
- Add a description and then click on Apply
- Select the Add Hardware button and add an Input for a Graphics Tablet (this allows the mouse pointer to enter and leave the VM's display window)
- Select the Disk 1 in the hardware listing and under Advanced options select the IDE disk bus and either a raw or qcow storage format. NOTE: Selecting the Readonly box will produce an error.
- Under Video in the hardware list, select vga for the Model.
- For the network interface, select a Device model of e1000 (the hypervisor default will not work for Linux).
- Add any additional network interfaces
- Set the amount of memory desired along with the number of processors to use (likely one)
- If you want the VMVirtual Machine to start upon bootup of the host server, then select the Start virtual machine on host bootup box in the Boot Options menu.
- When the hardware mods are complete select the Begin Installation at the top of the menu.
- Once the mahcine boots, verify the network connections.
