*** BEFORE THE TALK ***

./cleanup
./run

*** 1000 guests installed on my laptop for testing ***

virsh list .. showing guests

virsh dumpxml ... showing individual guests

XML vs the world?

*** 2000 create an overlay disk ***

Because I don't want to change my test guests ...

Create overlay disk
  diagram

  qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b /dev/fedora/f18x64 /tmp/f18.qcow2
  qemu-img info /tmp/f18.qcow2
  virt-install --import --disk path=/tmp/f18.qcow2,bus=virtio,format=qcow2 -n temp -r 2048
  virt-viewer --connect qemu:///session temp
  virsh list
  virsh dumpxml temp

Run 'shutdown' inside the guest.

  qemu-img info /tmp/f18.qcow2
#  virsh undefine temp

*** 9900 Q&A ***

--- If there are no immediate questions, then:

* How many people are using virtualization at all?

* How many people have virtualized some of their servers?

* How many people are using Amazon EC2 or another public cloud?

* How many people are running a public VPS or public cloud?

* How many people are running a private cloud or cloud-like service
  within their company?

* How many people are running VMware?

* How many people are running Xen?

* How many people are running KVM?

* What would stop you from moving away from VMware?

* What would stop you from moving to libvirt?

* What would stop you from moving to Open Stack or oVirt?
