I think its probably the best video which introduces a complex topic in a practical way and which also sufficiently explains the various nuts and bolts of it.

Definitly!

Loving the style of this guide a lot. I love, how it's slowly but specifically explaining all the details and steps. I love the hand-or-mouse-written URL. I love the VIM based overview of where we are on the agenda. I love that you use UI and CLI based approaches together to show all options that are possible. Thanks a lot for this tutorial!

These videos are good. Please make more. Such good stuff. Direct, on point, organized, detailed. Will recommend these.

Please don't stop making content about these kinds of things! You are, hands down the best explaining linux video creator I have encountered!

Brilliant video which helped me figure out an annoying libvirt issue thanks to your discussion on permissions. Keep up the awesome work, look forward to seeing more content from you in the future.

Fantastic video, many thanks for sharing. I now have a clear understanding of KVM and the various components that it requires.

This is surely one of the best tutorials i've ever seen. You are not only teaching KVM/QEMU etc, but you are also teaching how to explain something in an ordered, structured way.. with diagrams, documentation etc. I think the community should encourage people like you to create more and more content. Thanks 🙏 and Kudos 👍 for the great work

Really liked the way you explain things. Please keep on doing what you do and let us know how we can help.

Followed the setup while trying to build a minikube environment. probably would've lost hours and hours trying to configure everything properly myself. Thanks for the awesome work and looking forward for more videos like this!

Good workthrough man, I like the enthusiasm you're explaining with, makes it easy to follow along.

your presentation is amazing - best explanation on such a busy stack i have ever seen

Mind blowing. Simply super Mr. Octetz. Please make more and more stuff. Thanks a lot for this video.

Easy to digest tutorial. I think overall community is getting better and better.

Thanks for sharing this tutorial! One little hint: instead of typing `clear` in the terminal, one can also press ctrl+l (l as in letter) to clear the screen. :-)

Which is either annoying. He constantly mistypes his commands, goes for and back, finally descides how the command is written, hits enter, and while I try to get the output, he clears the screen immediately, only to fight against the next command. Rule of thumb: Never use `clear`. It's an antipattern. It's a YT-smell. Let the viewer descide where to read on the screen, let him look back, two commands back. Or do it the right way, and make it part of your PS1-prompt to autoclear every command after 2 seconds.

+dubblaluga there's a tiny difference between the two - clear clears the whole scrollback buffer, unlike ctrl+l which only pushes your prompt to the top ie. you can still page up to view the old stuff.

Just a random thought but I think typing "clear" in the terminal on the video makes it obvious for the observer what is happening rather than things just disappearing, but really probably doesn't make that much of a difference for a KZread video.

I don't mind a five letter command to clear the screen. Especially when you are using a multiplexer like tmux as he is where you might run into conflicting interpretations of ctrl+ keystrokes, although I know that the default master key in tmux is ctrl+b and that you can change any key bindings. There is another reason why ctrl+l for clearing the screen doesn't work for me because as a veteran vi/vim user I am so much accustomed to vi keymap and vi editing-mode that I switch on vi mapping to any cli tool that was linked against the libreadline and I configure my .inputrc accordingly or _set -o vi_ in any interactive bash where I am not supposed to customise this.

You deserve much more views...great quality and great explanation.

You easily have the best video or guide in general on this out there! Thank you

Awesome, this is the best tutorial/explanation about libvirt/virsh I've ever seen.

This video is a great introduction to KVM. I'm a user of KVM myself and I learned a few things. Good stuff 👍

I enjoyed this video. Thank you. Even though I already set up my kvm I love the explanation. Well done!

Excellent reference quality upload. I hope I get the chance to come back and follow this step by step after finishing my first Gentoo install attempt with Sakaki's EFI tutorial....and probably an attempt at Libreboot on a Leno.... This helped me understand a few kernel configuration options better due to the application example. That was my main goal. I subscribed, and added this to a public playlist for my (& others') reference. Ref quality uploads are 21st century documentation. Thanks for taking the time to make this kind of content. -Jake

Amazing video!

super super clear sharing thanks

Absolutely top tier

very helpful, thanks

Very awesome breakdown of the various moving parts. You mentioned that the advantage of doing a Clone is that it would help fiddle with the Client OS files. In your example, you didn't specify the Guest OS type and I noticed that the IP address remained the same (I assume the MAC address was also the same for your lead NIC). Was there some args that would help out with changing those so that multiple VM Clones can spin up without conflict - or is this part "roll your own" post processing?

🎉this is really good bro🎉

Love your video.

Nice work!

Thank you so much!

Only just catching up with your quite excellent channel and explanations about Libirt. One thing that I have been trying to do is correctly setup an alternative Storage pool as my boot partition is an 128GB SSD. Any chance you could do a video all about Storage Pools thanks.

And that ladies and gents is how you present a topic. Thank you. Subed, liked visited an dbmarked site. Looking forward to more quality material. EDIT: Default /var/lib/libvirt/ filesystem location. I had to sell my machines and laptop so I am using pretty low resource h/w. How difficult or awkward is it be to store filesystem to a different SSD on the same machine at install or point to the new path after an install. I have a 256Gig drive which I'd really like to use to store both ISOs and machines by default and keep my Manjaro host SSD as free as possible. I've had a look around and as usual people make it way more of a thing that it actually needs to be. If you can advise or point in the right direction I will find the ONE person to down vote your video and kick them squarely in the nut sack. No promises though.

Just subscribed. Thank you great tutorial. Let me know if you do a network... oh, you did one literally 4 days ago ... awesome :)

fantastic video, assuming I have a virtual machine with static-IP can I do the clone without the IP address? like to specify the new IP via the command or something like that?

Was wondering what tool you use to create your color-coded diagrams?

Wonderful talk. BY the way is there a way to establish connection or share these vms to outside world? Please let me know any resources. Thanks

when you created the VMs, who would log in.. I mean to say that I did not see the user defined in the virt-install.sh.. so actually when the VM starts what user and pwd to be given. if you could clarify that would be great help. Thank you.

Yep please make a video about different network options. Also can libvirt/qemu use RAM and HDD dynamically? I mean similar to how VirtualBox and hyper-v does this stuff.

Website is down

Thanks, you explained better than GPT chat. Maybe I need to change to fedora from Zorin, for this emulation of raspbrian.

Thank you heaps. This is the kind of thing I was looking for and I'm going to go and check out your tutorials on your page. I'm using a non-systemd distro (Artix) so wondering how different it will be before I play any further, especially with the CLI. Also random question, what terminal emulator do you use?

Subbed, great video. Can’t wait to check out your others!

I'd like to understand how to setup the network part. Specifically how to gain access to the VM from outside.

Great Video ... can you do one on IO passthrough?

Great explanation....👌👌👌.... And i have small doubt... How can manage multiple kvm host...? I mean vcenter can manage multiple hypervisors. As like that... How we can manage our multiple KVM hypervisors....???

Performance is much better and also you have a lot more control over your VMs being able to pass through a whole graphics card for only the VM to use

is there any performance difference comparing this proxmox or other type1 hypervisor

at 25:00 you did not show virsh-install popping up a new window for OS installation using SPICE. probably it was in your other screen but not shown in the main screen window. I wanted to see that. Does that mean I can create a VM using virsh-install CLI method remotely using SSH ? or do I have to have some sort of GUI to install VM using cli?

Hello thank you very much for the video.I am studying for LFCS and i find it quite usefull!Also when i run virt install command,i face a problem:"ERROR The requested volume capacity will exceed the available pool space when the volume is fully allocated. (8192 M requested capacity > 15 M available) (Use --check disk_size=off or --check all=off to override)" The system that i use is an aws instance 1GB ram and 10Gib disk.

good thing i got a overview of what these libvirt or qemu or virsh things are. However, theres still lot of things i dont understand since i dont have background knowledge on it? Can you tell how to get started on understanding systems? Im a QA however, it seems like I get to work on baremetals and installing KVM/ESXI VMs, twerking files etc which I dont know at all. Right now trying to create a VM in KVM host but getting issue with host not accessible after creating VM. From lab, got to know that br0 which is created based on phy interfaces is not available in host since i used it up as --host-device while creating using virsh-install i still have things to figure out how to add a USB connection and confirm its added to the VM... how do I get such kind of info? i can start from basics if there is such a guide?

Very Good Video. Pretty close to what I was looking for. What is the difference between Qemu direct install or direct creation of virtual machines and the virt-install method? Which one is better or which one should we use? Generally? For like just a simple example VM creation.

Not much! Virt-install largely acts as a wrapper to make things more accessible for the specific domain of vm creation. If you have the patience to learn qemu config/flags, then by all means -- 1 less abstraction!

I have a PC with 6 physical Network interfaces. Is there a way to have Linux as the hypervisor host using1 of those interfaces, and run OpnSense in a VM using another 4 physical devices? Basically, I want to have the VM use physical network interfaces rather than virtual interfaces. What I want to end up with is OpnSense running as my network Firewall/Router, with at least 4 Network interfaces configured as a bridge, and run TrueNAS in a second VM as a NAS with it's own physical network interface. I'm doing all this now in separate machines, so I'm trying to combine it all into 1.

I wasn't aware that the '--disk' option CREATES the qcow2 image. I am also confused as to how to use a kickstart script and iso in the '--location' part.

Is it possible with virtual machine backup without downtime with machines installed on the raw LVM volume, then revert from backup VM?

Would this work on Void Linux?
