# Local image testing with QEMU / libvirt
|
|
|
|
To create local testing clusters using QEMU, some prerequisites have to be met:
|
|
|
|
- [qcow2 constellation image](/image/README.md)
|
|
- [qemu-metadata-api container image](/hack/qemu-metadata-api/README.md)
|
|
|
|
Deploying the VMs requires `libvirt` to be installed and configured correctly.
|
|
You may either use [your local libvirt setup](#local-libvirt-setup) if it meets the requirements, or use a [containerized libvirt in docker](#containerized-libvirt).
|
|
|
|
## Containerized libvirt
|
|
|
|
Constellation will automatically deploy a containerized libvirt instance, if no connection URI is defined in the Constellation config file.
|
|
Follow the steps in our [libvirt readme](../../nix/container/README.md) if you wish to build your own image.

### Install required packages
|
|
|
|
[General reference](https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/virtualization-libvirt)
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
sudo apt install qemu-kvm libvirt-daemon-system xsltproc
|
|
sudo systemctl enable libvirtd
|
|
sudo usermod -a -G libvirt $USER
|
|
# reboot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Setup emulated TPM
|
|
|
|
Using a virtual TPM (vTPM) with QEMU only works if swtpm is version 0.7 or newer!
|
|
Ubuntu 22.04 currently ships swtpm 0.6.3, so you need to install swtpm [from launchpad](https://launchpad.net/~stefanberger/+archive/ubuntu/swtpm-jammy/).
|
|
|
|
1. Uninstall current version of swtpm (if installed)
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
sudo apt remove swtpm swtpm-tools
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Add ppa (this command shows the ppa for Ubuntu 22.04 jammy but others are available)
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stefanberger/swtpm-jammy
|
|
sudo apt update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Install swtpm
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
sudo apt install swtpm swtpm-tools
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. Patch configuration under `/etc/swtpm_setup.conf`
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
# Program invoked for creating certificates
|
|
create_certs_tool = /usr/bin/swtpm_localca
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
5. Patch ownership of `/var/lib/swtpm-localca`
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
sudo chown -R swtpm:root /var/lib/swtpm-localca
|
|
```
|
|

|
|
```shell-session
|
|
sudo dnf install -y dnf-plugins-core
|
|
sudo dnf -y install qemu-kvm libvirt-daemon-config-network libvirt-daemon-kvm xsltproc swtpm
|
|
sudo usermod -a -G libvirt $USER
|
|
# reboot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
### Update libvirt settings
|
|
|
|
Open `/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf` and change the following settings:
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
security_driver = "none"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then restart libvirt
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
sudo systemctl restart libvirtd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Connecting to a console
|
|
|
|
Once you created a cluster via constellation you can connect to the virtual machines using the following commands. First, run
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
virsh -c qemu+tcp://localhost:16599/system
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
which gives you a new `virsh` shell. In this shell, you can run
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
to see the created virtual machines, as well as their status. This should look something like this:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
Id Name State
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
1 constell-control-plane-0 running
|
|
2 constell-worker-0 running
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to connect to one of those machines, run
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
console <ID>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where `<ID>` would be the id of your virtual machine as seen above (e.g. `1`). After that, press Enter another time and you should drop into a shell on the virtual machine.
|
|
|
|
Please note that connecting via `qemu+tcp` is not encrypted and should not be used in a security relevant environment.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### VMs are not properly cleaned up after a failed `constellation create` command
|
|
|
|
Terraform may fail to remove your VMs, in which case you need to do so manually.
|
|
|
|
- List all domains: `virsh list --all`
|
|
- Destroy domains with nvram: `virsh undefine --nvram <name>`
|
|
|
|
### VMs have no internet access
|
|
|
|
`iptables` rules may prevent your VMs form properly accessing the internet.
|
|
Make sure your rules are not dropping forwarded packages.
|
|
|
|
List your rules:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
sudo iptables -S
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The output may look similar to the following:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
-P INPUT ACCEPT
|
|
-P FORWARD DROP
|
|
-P OUTPUT ACCEPT
|
|
-N DOCKER
|
|
-N DOCKER-ISOLATION-STAGE-1
|
|
-N DOCKER-ISOLATION-STAGE-2
|
|
-N DOCKER-USER
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If your `FORWARD` chain is set to `DROP`, you will need to update your rules:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
sudo iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
|
|
```
|
