We will setup a bridge, install kvm, <a href=\"http:\/\/virt-manager.org\/\">virt-manager<\/a> and setup a few VMs on the local machine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Meeting Preparation:<\/strong><br \/>\n1) Check for vmx or svm support inside \/proc\/cpuinfo  &#8211; to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.linux-kvm.org\/page\/FAQ#Preparing_to_use_KVM\">check your system<\/a> for this capability.<br \/>\n2) DO NOT have other virtualization installed &#8211; no VirtualBox or VMware. Bad things can happen if there is a conflict. Dual boot is fine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bio:<\/strong><br \/>\n====<br \/>\nJD has been a Linux user since 1993 and started performing DevOps in 1996 while leading a team of cross-platform software developers. First introduced to virtualization in 1989 on MVS, it wasn&#8217;t until the late 1990s when VMware Workstation _changed the world_. For the last 15 yrs, he has been working as a systems, infrastructure and enterprise architect.<\/p>\n<p>Virtualization and Linux have been at the center of his virtualization efforts since 2007 including Xen, VirtualBox, qemu, VMware ESX\/i and KVM. Prior to that, professional experience with HP, Sun, and IBM virtualization was gained.<\/p>\n<p>===================================<br \/>\nALE-NW **usually** meets the 2nd Thursday of the month at the SPSU campus.
