Step by Step installation of KVM / RHEVH 3.0 inside VMware Workstation 8.0

Step by Step installation of KVM / RHEVH 3.0 inside VMware Workstation 8.0  

We require some additional setting to install KVM / RHEVH 3.0  inside VMware Workstation:

i) You can install KVM / RHEVH 3.0 in Physical system or Vmware Workstation 8.0 only.

ii) In this Lab we used the below component;

a) VMware Workstation 8.0

b) RHEVH 3.0 beta “rhevh-6.2-20111108.0″

VMware-Workstation 建立 RHEV-H 3.0 LAB環境

Configuring KVM / RHEV-H 3.0 VM inside VMware workstation
RHEV-H 建立, 

建立自訂VM完成後, 需要在編緝 RHEVH.vmx , 確認是否正確,可能會造成無法安裝。

造成:開機就會當機及出現Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! (hdd 不支援, 沒驅動)

•  CPU支援VT
•  電源管理

               apic.xapic.enable = FALSE

•  硬碟

               scsi0.virtualDev = "lsisas1068"

編緝vmx檔, 關閉電源管理

apic.xapic.enable = FALSE

一般最少建立兩台RHEV-H, 才能完全測到全部的功能, 玩起來比較有感覺。
