How to create a KVM Windows 2008 root filesystem for VNX
Basic installation
Follow this procedure to create a KVM Windows 2008 based root filesystem for VNX.- Create the filesystem disk image:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 vnx_rootfs_kvm_win2008.qcow2 20G
vnx --create-rootfs vnx_rootfs_kvm_win2008.qcow2 --install-media /almacen/iso/Windows-server-2008.iso --mem 2G --arch x86_64
- Find out the virtual machine name or number using:
virsh list | grep win2008 | awk print $1}'
/usr/share/vnx/bin/vnx_update_aced <vm_number> /usr/share/vnx/aced/vnx-aced-win-0.1b.exe
