Kube Virt

Pro Feature

This feature is available in the vCluster Pro tier. Contact us for more details and to start a trial.

vCluster offers the possibility to reuse a KubeVirt installation of the host cluster within the vCluster. vCluster is able to sync KubeVirt resources from the vCluster to the host cluster and allows you to use virtctl within the vCluster.

Enable KubeVirt Integration

To enable the integration, use the following configuration inside your vcluster.yaml:

integrations:
  kubeVirt:
    enabled: true
    # If you want vCluster to sync data volumes as well.
    #sync:
    #  dataVolumes:
    #    enabled: true

Next you can deploy and use KubeVirt resources inside the vCluster which will be synced to the host cluster.

Limitations

vCluster currently only supports syncing and using the following resources inside the vCluster:

• VirtualMachine
• VirtualMachineInstance
• VirtualMachineInstanceMigration
• VirtualMachinePool
• VirtualMachineClone
• DataVolume

The following virtctl commands are supported:

• virtctl start
• virtctl stop
• virtctl migrate
• virtctl ssh
• virtctl vnc
• virtctl pause
• virtctl unpause
• virtctl scp
• virtctl restart
• virtctl port-forward
• virtctl console
