VirtualBox Virtual Machine Plan |
Linux at Lunch - dial in only, shared screen viewing limited - discussing the links providedVirtualBox Strategy, Plan and Goalshttp://johnmeister.com/linux/Notes/VirtualBox-VM-Plan
Session #42 - November 25, 2015 (Wednesday) - update on Performance Tests; VirtualBox: SuSE on SuSEMain pages for #42 presentation: http://johnmeister.com/linux/Microsoft/LoadTest-MacOSx.sh.txt update on performance testinghttp://johnmeister.com/linux/Microsoft/LOADTEST-OS-COMPARISON.html http://johnmeister.com/linux/Notes/VM_setup_SuSE_13.2/ALL.html Step-by-step screen shots of install of SuSE 13.2 Linux on VirtualBox Virtual Machine on SuSE Linux
exercises: (use VirtualBox with two VMs, or Cygwin, or a Linux system) (continuing Q and A and review)
the goals:
1) work with the command line and SSH between systems – learn basic Linux functions and shell commands
2) later, build VMs for Windows testing and interoperability - demonstrate the use of Linux as a SECURE and reliable host for Microsoft
- will build Win7 VM's for testing browsers and java by test team - showing stability of Linux as VM host/cost saver
- will build various NON-networked Windows Server versions for testing (w2k8r2, w2k12 and w2k16)
3) networking between 2 VM's but isolated from local network - Allow active testing of unapproved Operating Systems (win and linux)
4) remote access from Microsoft to Linux system running a Microsoft system to permit active development and testing
