3.5. 将 Windows 服务器 2008 作为全虚拟客户端安装

这部分论述如何安装全虚拟 Windows 服务器 2008 客户端。

过程 3.4. 使用 virt-manager 安装 Windows 服务器 2008

  1. Open virt-manager

    Start virt-manager. Launch the Virtual Machine Manager application from the Applications menu and System Tools submenu. Alternatively, run the virt-manager command as root.

  2. Select the hypervisor

    Select the hypervisor. If installed, select Xen or KVM. For this example, select KVM. Note that presently KVM is named qemu.

    选择该选项后「新建」按钮就变得可用了。按「新建」按钮。

  3. Start the new virtual machine wizard

    Pressing the New button starts the virtual machine creation wizard.

    Press Forward to continue.

  4. Name the virtual machine

    Provide a name for your virtualized guest. Punctuation and whitespace characters are not permitted.

    Press Forward to continue.

  5. Choose a virtualization method

    Choose the virtualization method for the virtualized guest. Note you can only select an installed virtualization method. If you selected KVM or Xen earlier (step 2) you must use the hypervisor you selected. This example uses the KVM hypervisor.

    Press Forward to continue.

  6. Select the installation method

    对于所有 Windows 版本您必须使用「本地安装介质」，可以是 ISO 映像或者物理光学介质。

    如果您为 Windows 网络安装配置了 PXE 服务器，则您可以使用 PXE。PXE Windows 安装不在本章讨论范围内。

    Set OS Type to Windows and OS Variant to Microsoft Windows 2008 as shown in the screenshot.

    Press Forward to continue.

  7. Locate installation media

    选择 ISO 映像位置或者 CD-ROM 或者 DVD 设备。这个示例使用 Windows 服务器 2008 安装磁盘的 ISO 文件映像。

    1. Press the Browse button.

    2. Search to the location of the ISO file and select it.

      Press Open to confirm your selection.

    3. The file is selected and ready to install from.

  1. ## Image files and SELinux
  3. For ISO image files and guest storage images, the recommended directory to use is the `/var/lib/libvirt/images/` directory. Any other location may require additional configuration for SELinux, refer to [第 7.1 节 “SELinux 和虚拟化”]($13d39f8132529917.md#sect-Virtualization_Guide-Security_for_virtualization-SELinux_and_virtualization "7.1. SELinux 和虚拟化") for details.

  1. Storage setup

    Assign a physical storage device (Block device) or a file-based image (File). File-based images must be stored in the /var/lib/libvirt/images/ directory. Assign sufficient storage for your virtualized guest. Assign sufficient space for your virtualized guest and any application it requires.

    Press Forward to continue.

  2. Network setup

    Select either Virtual network or Shared physical device.

    The virtual network option uses Network Address Translation (NAT) to share the default network device with the virtualized guest. Use the virtual network option for wireless networks.

    The shared physical device option uses a network bond to give the virtualized guest full access to a network device.

    Press Forward to continue.

  3. Memory and CPU allocation

    The Allocate memory and CPU window displays. Choose appropriate values for the virtualized CPUs and RAM allocation. These values affect the host’s and guest’s performance.

    Virtualized guests require sufficient physical memory (RAM) to run efficiently and effectively. Choose a memory value which suits your guest operating system and application requirements. Windows Server 2008. Remember, guests use physical RAM. Running too many guests or leaving insufficient memory for the host system results in significant usage of virtual memory and swapping. Virtual memory is significantly slower causing degraded system performance and responsiveness. Ensure to allocate sufficient memory for all guests and the host to operate effectively.

    Assign sufficient virtual CPUs for the virtualized guest. If the guest runs a multithreaded application assign the number of virtualized CPUs it requires to run most efficiently. Do not assign more virtual CPUs than there are physical processors (or hyper-threads) available on the host system. It is possible to over allocate virtual processors, however, over allocating has a significant, negative affect on guest and host performance due to processor context switching overheads.

    Press Forward to continue.

  4. Verify and start guest installation

    Verify the configuration.
