KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is an open-source virtualization technology that allows you to run multiple virtual machines on a single physical server. Here’s how you can install KVM on an Ubuntu 20.04 LTS headless server:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. First, update the package repository by running the command “sudo apt update”<\/li>\n
  2. Next, install the KVM package and other required packages by running the command “sudo apt install qemu-kvm libvirt-daemon-system libvirt-clients bridge-utils”<\/li>\n
  3. Once the installation is complete, check if the KVM module is loaded by running the command “sudo lsmod | grep kvm”<\/li>\n
  4. If the KVM module is not loaded, load the module by running the command “sudo modprobe kvm”<\/li>\n
  5. Next, check the status of the libvirtd service by running the command “sudo systemctl status libvirtd”<\/li>\n
  6. If the service is not running, start the service by running the command “sudo systemctl start libvirtd”<\/li>\n
  7. To enable the service to start automatically at boot time, run the command “sudo systemctl enable libvirtd”<\/li>\n
  8. Finally, add the user to the libvirtd group by running the command “sudo usermod -aG libvirtd <username>”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Once the installation is complete, you can use the command-line tool “virsh” to manage the virtual machines, and you can use the “virt-install” command to create new virtual machines.<\/p>\n

    It’s important to note that, if you want to use a bridge network, you need to configure a bridge interface, you can use the command “sudo brctl addbr br0” to create a new bridge<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
