OSChina StratoVirt

StratoVirt, a virtualization project implemented in the Rust language, provides both lightweight and standard virtual machine modes. For lightweight scenarios, StratoVirt achieves only the minimum set of devices required to run the business load, greatly reducing the types of devices that are redundant by traditional virtualization, significantly reducing overhead. Because in lightweight virtual machine mode, the memory base noise of a single virtual machine is less than 4MB, the startup time is less than 50ms, and the device’s extreme scalability supports millisecond latency.

Oracle @VirtualBox 6.1.6 now released fixes shared clipboard and other bugs

unfortunately you CANT do an inplace update because vboxnetdhcp process blocks the update so

  • shutdown VirtualBox 6.1.2 first
  • REBOOT your (windows 10) pc
  • then run VirtualBox 6.1.6 installer

CentOS 8 & IBM Red Hat 8 QEMU & KVM

CentOS 8 & IBM Red Hat 8 support QEMU & KVM

# yum groupinstall "Virtualization Host"
# yum install virt-install
# yum install virt-manager
# yum install libvirt-nss
# systemctl enable --now libvirtd

however note that IBM Red Hat say

while QEMU is an essential component of the architecture, it is not intended to be used directly on RHEL 8 systems, due to security concerns. Therefore, using qemu-* commands is not supported by Red Hat, and it is highly recommended to interact with QEMU using libvirt.

so on centos 8 and ibm red hat 8 instead of qemu-* use these commands

$ virt-host-validate
$ virt-install
$ virt-manager
$ virt-viewer
$ virsh
