Instancetypes and preferences for running VMs on KubeVirt

kubevirt/common-instancetypes

A set of instance types and preferences to help create KubeVirt VirtualMachines.

Installation

Bundles of pre-generated instance type and preference resources are available within this repository and can be applied directly to an existing Kubernetes cluster with KubeVirt installed using kubectl:

$ kubectl apply -f ./common-instancetypes-all-bundle.yaml

Additionally kustomize can be used to generate these resources before applying them to the cluster with kubectl

$ kustomize build ./ | kubectl apply -f -

A number of resource specific kustomize build configs are also provided and allow limited generation, for example the following command will generate and install only the VirtualMachineInstancetype resources:

$ kustomize build ./VirtualMachineInstancetypes | kubectl apply -f -

Additional targets are avilable for ./VirtualMachineClusterInstancetypes, ./VirtualMachineClusterPreferences and ./VirtualMachinePreferences.

Requirements

The following tools are required by each Makefile target:

• make
  • make lint
    • yamllint
    • bashate
  • make generate
    • kustomize
  • make validate
    • kustomize
    • kubeconform
  • make readme
    • yq
• make schema (optional)
  • openapi2jsonschema

Running Makefile targets within a container

A Dockerfile is available that provides all of the above dependencies.

To build and use this simply set the COMMON_INSTANCETYPES_CRI env variable to docker or podman before running make build_image:

$ COMMON_INSTANCETYPES_CRI=docker make build_image
$ COMMON_INSTANCETYPES_CRI=docker make
