Deploy the OpenShift Virtualization Operator

  1. Deploy the OpenShift Virtualization Operator

  2. If you want to see the progress of the operator you can log into the OpenShift Console (hint run oc whoami --show-console to get the URL)

    list of installed operators
  3. Create an OpenShift Virtualization operand

    Note: this is all defaults, so will not support a lot of the more advanced features you might want such as live migration.

  4. New “Virtualization” Section in the OpenShift Console

    Once the operator is installed you should see a new “Virtualization” section in the OpenShift Console (you may be prompted to refresh the page)

  5. Close the popup window and click the “Download virtctl” button to download the virtctl binary.
