Managing Virtual Machines with Red Hat OpenShift® Virtualization (DO316)
H45ZYS
Table of Contents
Overview
This course provides the essential skills you need to create and manage virtual machines (VM) on OpenShift® using the Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization operator.
In this course, you learn:
- How to create, access, and manage VMs on OpenShift clusters
- How to control the usage and access of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources from VMs using the same Kubernetes features that also controls usage and access to these resources for containers
- Sample architectures to manage high availability (HA) of VMs using standard Kubernetes features and extensions from OpenShift Virtualization
- Strategies to connect VMs on OpenShift to data center services outside of their OpenShift cluster, such as storage and databases
- Strategies to migrate VMs from compatible hypervisors to OpenShift Virtualization by using the Migration Toolkit for Virtualization operator
-
This course is ideal for virtual machine administrators who want to virtualize workloads from traditional hypervisors to OpenShift virtualization. It is also suitable for platform engineers, cloud administrators, and system administrators who want to support virtualized workloads, either independently from or in the same OpenShift cluster as containerized workloads.
-
Before attending this course, you should have experience with the Linux system administration skills covered in Red Hat System Administration I (RH124) (HK831S) and Red Hat System Administration II (RH134) (HK832S).
-
After completing this course, you should be able to:
- Create VMs from installation media and disk images
- Access text and graphical consoles of a VM
- Connect to VMs using Kubernetes networking (services, ingress, and routes)
- Provision storage to VMs using Kubernetes storage (PVC, PV, and storage classes)
- Start, pause, and stop VMs
- Clone and snapshot VMs
- Create and seal golden VM images
- Connect VMs to external and extra networks (outside of the Kubernetes pod and service networks)
- Provision load balancer services for VMs and then use the services to enable SSH access to VMs
- Connect VMs to host storage and external storage
- Create VMs from predefined and custom VM templates and i nstance types
- Migrate VMs from compatible hypervisors
- Backup and restore VMs by using OADP and command-line tools
