The new Homelab – Part 1: Fedora Server

In this video, I remove oVirt from my homelab environment and reprovision the server with Fedora Server 35. Then import the VM’s that were previously running on oVirt. This means we will preserve the filesystems storing the disks during the install of Fedora Server.

I also configure the Hypervisor networks using OVS bonds and bridges and demonstrate how to attach VM’s to specific bridges.

Fedora Server:

Creating VM’s with OVS interfaces with VLAN tags:

  • it will be better to description the architure with some diagram .
    Do you wrote book for deep description about tripleO ?

  • Thank you for the great videos with no fluff. I'm going to be restructuring my homelab and trying out okd soon. Really looking forward to part 2.

  • Great been doing something similar recently. I'm trying to do the vlan tagging with Linux bridges tho. When you stop and start your VMs the tags won't be applied automatically, right? This is freaking me out as there's no good way in libvirt to do that!
