Comments on Virtualization With KVM On An OpenSUSE 11.3 Server
Virtualization With KVM On An OpenSUSE 11.3 Server This guide explains how you can install and use KVM for creating and running virtual machines on an OpenSUSE 11.3 server. I will show how to create image-based virtual machines and also virtual machines that use a logical volume (LVM). KVM is short for Kernel-based Virtual Machine and makes use of hardware virtualization, i.e., you need a CPU that supports hardware virtualization, e.g. Intel VT or AMD-V.

Although this tutorial is for OpenSUSE 11.3, it will likely be found by those configuring later versions such as 13.x. In later versions a minor but critical change is that BRIDGE_FORWARDDELAY must be set to at least 2 or the bridge won't come up. If you leave it at zero and run the command 'ifup br0' an error message about this being out of range will be returned and the valid range given.
