Migrating Virtual Machines to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization with Ansible Automation Platform

This course covers the fundamentals of OpenShift Virtualization, best practices for VM migration, and how to leverage Ansible Automation Platform to simplify and orchestrate the process. Participants will gain practical experience in migrating workloads efficiently while ensuring minimal downtime and operational consistency.

This focused Red Hat training course, Migrating Virtual Machines to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization with Ansible Automation Platform (DO346), is designed to equip IT professionals with the essential skills to efficiently move their existing virtual machines to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization.

Drawing key content from both Managing Virtual Machines in Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization (DO316) and Automate and Manage Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization with Ansible (DO336), this accelerated learning path provides the specific knowledge needed for successful migration.

Upon completion, you will gain:

  1. Foundational understanding of core OpenShift and Kubernetes concepts, including nodes, pods, and operators.

  2. Practical abilities to deploy the OpenShift Virtualization operator.

  3. Competence in configuring network and storage resources for your virtual machines within the OpenShift environment.

  4. Proven strategies for migrating virtual machines from other hypervisors to OpenShift Virtualization. This includes hands-on experience using the Migration Toolkit for Virtualization operator, orchestrated and automated through the Ansible Automation Platform.

This course is based on OpenShift Container Platform 4.16, OpenShift Virtualization 4.16, and Ansible Automation Platform 2.4.

Key Learning Objectives:

This course focuses on providing you with the practical skills to migrate virtual machines to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization. You will learn to:

  1. Deploy and manage the OpenShift Virtualization operator within an existing Red Hat OpenShift environment.
  2. Configure advanced node networking using Multus CNI plug-ins and the NMState operator to seamlessly integrate virtual machines with external networks.

  3. Effectively manage storage and disks for virtual machines within the Red Hat OpenShift platform.
  4. Execute virtual machine migrations from other hypervisors to OpenShift Virtualization leveraging the Migration Toolkit for Virtualization operator and the automation capabilities of Ansible Automation Platform.

Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization
Distinguish Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization from container technologies and from traditional virtual machine technologies. Describe the features and use cases of OpenShift Virtualization. Deploy the OpenShift Virtualization operator in an existing Red Hat OpenShift environment.

Configuring Networking for Virtual Machines
Configure standard Kubernetes network objects for virtual machines and virtual machine-backed applications. Configure node networking to connect virtual machines and nodes to networks outside the cluster by using Multus CNI plug-ins and the NMState operator.

Configuring Storage for Virtual Machines
Manage storage and disks for virtual machines in Red Hat OpenShift by using Kubernetes.

Migrating Virtual Machines to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization
Migrate virtual machines from a compatible hypervisor to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization by using the migration toolkit for virtualization (MTV) operator and the Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) operator.
