Getting started with OpenShift Virtualization
You can explore the features and functionalities of OpenShift Virtualization by installing and configuring a basic environment.

Cluster configuration procedures require |
Planning and installing OpenShift Virtualization
Plan and install OpenShift Virtualization on an OpenShift Dedicated cluster:
Planning and installation resources
Creating and managing virtual machines
Create a virtual machine (VM):
-
Create a VM from a Red Hat image.
You can create a VM by using a Red Hat template.
-
Create a VM from a custom image.
You can create a VM by importing a custom image from a container registry or a web page, by uploading an image from your local machine, or by cloning a persistent volume claim (PVC).
Connect a VM to a secondary network:
-
Open Virtual Network (OVN)-Kubernetes secondary network.
VMs are connected to the pod network by default.
Connect to a VM:
-
Connect to the serial console or VNC console of a VM.
Manage a VM:
