ZVM

Later this week, an OTA push upgrade to experience the ZVM

Hi!
Only for ZImaCube or also for ZimaBoard?

This will work on ZimaBoard and ZimaBlade but obviously remember performance will vary depending on resources

Have someone managed to install Home Assistant OS in a VM and can make me a short tutorial ? I’m kind of a noob and I can’t get it to work :sweat_smile:

Hi,

This works on top of qemu or other manager or it’s 100% developed by ZimaOS?
What’s the performance difference compared to qemu + libvirt (Virtual Machine Manager from Store)

Thanks!

Its KVM+QEMU and no they didn’t develop those opensource projects.

There will be no perf difference, the virtual machine manager app is just a management UI on top of the underlying KVM+QEMU.

Libvirt is a single consistent library to manage virtual environments, it will have no direct effect on speed of whatever virtualization system it is managing.

KVM+QEMU+Libvirt are all installed, libvirtd seems to be running, i have been unable to connect to with VMM, but i am not a VMM expert so i probably did something wrong
