Kubernetes : Create Virtual Machine2024/11/06

 

Create a virtual machine with KubeVirt.

This example is based on the environment like follows.

-----------+---------------------------+--------------------------+------------
           |                           |                          |
       eth0|10.0.0.30              eth0|10.0.0.51             eth0|10.0.0.52
+----------+-----------+   +-----------+----------+   +-----------+----------+
|   [ dlp.srv.world ]  |   | [ node01.srv.world ] |   | [ node02.srv.world ] |
|     Control Plane    |   |      Worker Node     |   |      Worker Node     |
+----------------------+   +----------------------+   +----------------------+

[1]

A Persistent storage is needed to store OS images.
On this example, install NFS Server on Control Plane Node and configure [/home/nfsshare] directory as NFS share as external persistent storage, and also configure dynamic volume provisioning with NFS plugin like the example of [1], [2], [3].

[2] Install Containerized Data Importer to store OS images.
