Development Environment (KVM)

Create CentOS 7 development virtual machine under KVM

# KVM is running on server called master1 which is not my desktop
ssh -X master1

# On master1 server
wget -P /global/downloads/centos http://mirror.mobap.edu/centos/7.8.2003/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything-2003.iso

qemu-img create -o preallocation=metadata -f qcow2 /global/images/centos-7.qcow2 32G

# install wwdev Centos 7 development VM
sudo virt-install --virt-type kvm --name centos7-wwdev --ram 8192 \
   --disk /global/images/centos-7.qcow2,format=qcow2 \
   --network network=default \
   --graphics vnc,listen=0.0.0.0 --noautoconsole \
   --os-type=linux --os-variant=rhel7.0 \
   --location=/global/downloads/centos/CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything-2003.iso

# Complete installation using virt-manager

# To start virt-manager on non-local server
ssh -X master1

sudo -E virt-manager

# Login to VM and install @development group and go language
ssh root@wwdev

# Disable selinux by modifying /etc/sysconfig/selinux
vi /etc/sysconfig/selinux

    SELINUX=disabled

# disable firewall
systemctl stop firewalld
systemctl disable firewalld

Turn off default network dhcp on server master1

# shutdown all VMs
sudo virsh net-destroy default

sudo virsh net-edit default

    # remove dhcp lines from XML

sudo virsh net-start default

Build and install Warewulf on wwdev

ssh wwdev
