Virtualisation - Creating an hypervisor - KVM

Image
What is Virtualisation:     Virtualisation allows you to run multiple virtual machines on a single physical machine by sharing the resources in it. Virtual machines can be run in different operating systems on the same physical machine.     The Physical machine that runs multiple virtual machines is called as an hypervisor . Hypervisor:     A hypervisor or virtual machine monitor (VMM) is a computer software, firmware or hardware that creates and runs virtual machines.  A hypervisor runs one or more virtual machines is called a host machine, and each virtual machine is called a guest machine.     In this article we will be seeing how to configure a KVM Hypervisor. KVM - Kernel Based Virtual Machines:     Kernel-based Virtual Machine is a virtualization infrastructure for the Linux kernel that turns it into an hypervisor. KVM Installation: Installing qemu packages,  We need to install qemu packages which provide the user-level KVM and disk image manager. j
