 Install Virtualization for Block Device
=========================================

If you intend to use Ceph Block Devices and the Ceph Storage Cluster as a
backend for Virtual Machines (VMs) or  :term:`Cloud Platforms` the QEMU/KVM and
``libvirt`` packages are important for enabling VMs and cloud platforms.
Examples of VMs include: QEMU/KVM, XEN, VMWare, LXC, VirtualBox, etc. Examples
of Cloud Platforms include OpenStack, CloudStack, OpenNebula, etc.

Install QEMU
============

QEMU KVM can interact with Ceph Block Devices via ``librbd``, which is an
important feature for using Ceph with cloud platforms. Once you install QEMU,
see `QEMU and Block Devices`_ for usage.


Debian Packages
---------------

QEMU packages are incorporated into Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin and later
versions. To  install QEMU, execute the following::

	sudo apt-get install qemu


RPM Packages
------------

To install QEMU, execute the following:


#. Update your repositories. ::

	sudo yum update

#. Install QEMU for Ceph. ::

	sudo yum install qemu-kvm qemu-kvm-tools qemu-img

#. Install additional QEMU packages (optional)::

	sudo yum install qemu-guest-agent qemu-guest-agent-win32


Building QEMU
-------------

To build QEMU from source, use the following procedure::

	cd {your-development-directory}
	git clone git://git.qemu.org/qemu.git
	cd qemu
	./configure --enable-rbd
	make; make install



Install libvirt
===============

To use ``libvirt`` with Ceph, you must have a running Ceph Storage Cluster, and
you must have installed and configured QEMU. See `Using libvirt with Ceph Block
Device`_ for usage.


Debian Packages
---------------

``libvirt`` packages are incorporated into Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin and
later versions of Ubuntu. To install ``libvirt`` on these distributions,
execute the following::

	sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libvirt-bin


RPM Packages
------------

To use ``libvirt`` with a Ceph Storage Cluster, you must  have a running Ceph
Storage Cluster and you must also install a version of QEMU with ``rbd`` format
support.  See `Install QEMU`_ for details.


``libvirt`` packages are incorporated into the recent CentOS/RHEL distributions.
To install ``libvirt``, execute the following::

	sudo yum install libvirt


Building ``libvirt``
--------------------

To build ``libvirt`` from source, clone the ``libvirt`` repository and use
`AutoGen`_ to generate the build. Then, execute ``make`` and ``make install`` to
complete the installation. For example::

	git clone git://libvirt.org/libvirt.git
	cd libvirt
	./autogen.sh
	make
	sudo make install

See `libvirt Installation`_ for details.
