 INTRODUCTION
TO
VIRTUALIZATION AND CLOUD COMPUTING
AIM: Steps for Installing VMware Workstation Pro. And create virtualization in
VMware. Install guest OS on the installed VMware.
REQUIRED S/W: VMware Workstation Pro, Windows 10 OS.
THEORY:
1. What are Virtual Machines?
• Virtual machine is a software computer that, like a physical machine, runs an
operating system
and applications.
• A virtual machine uses the physical resources of the physical machine on
which it runs, which is
called the host system.
• Virtual machines have virtual devices that provide the same functionality as
physical hardware, but with the additional benefits of portability, manageability,
and security.

 ASSIGNMENT -2

AIM: Adding a New Virtual Disk to a Virtual Machine

REQUIREMENTS:
VMware workstation, Virtual machine (windows10)
SYSTEM REQUIREMENT:
• Windows operation system
• RAM 8GB
• Storage capacity 1TB
THEORY:
Virtual disks are stored as files on the host computer or on a network file
server. It does not matter whether the physical disk that holds the files is IDE
or SCSI. A virtual IDE drive can be stored on an IDE drive or on a SCSI drive. So,
can a virtual SCSI drive.

PROCEDURES:
Step 1: To open the Virtual Machine Setting right click on windows10 and go to
setting.

16
step 2: Select the hard disk option and click the add button to add
new virtual disk.

17
Step 3: The add hardware wizard will open. Select the 1st option i.e.
hard disk and click the next button to proceed further.

Step 4: You need to select what kind of disk you want to create. To create a
new disk, choose whether you want the virtual disk to be an IDE disk, SATA
disk, NVMe disk or a SCSI disk. Here the SCSI disk type has been selected. Now
click next to proceed.

18
Step 5: A select disk window will open asking you to select any of the three-
given option:
• Create a new virtual disk – Creates a new virtual disk that is composed of one
or more files on the host file system, which will appear as a single hard disk to
the guest operating system.
• Use an existing virtual disk – Reusing a previously configured disk. If this
option is selected it will ask for the previously existing virtual disk name.
• Use a physical disk – This option is selected to give the virtual machine direct
access to a local hard disk and requires administrator privileges.

Step 6: Set the capacity for the new virtual disk and click next.
• Allocate all disc space now – Allocating all the space at the time you create
the
virtual disk gives somewhat better performance, but it requires as much disk
space as the size you specify for the virtual disk. If you do not select this
option, the virtual disk's files start small and grow as needed, but they can
never grow larger than the size you set here.

19
• Store virtual disk as a single file – in this option the new virtual disk will be
stored as a single file and cannot be split into multiple disks.
• Store virtual disk into multiple files – Splitting the disk makes it easier to
move the virtual machine to another computer but may reduce performance
with very large disks.

Step 7: Accept the default filename and location for the virtual disk file or
change it, if you want to use a different name or location. To find a different
folder, click Browse. After giving the name click finish to add the new virtual
disk.

20
Step 8: Click ok in virtual machine setting window to save the new virtual disk
Configuration.

21
Step 9: Now power on the windows 10 operating system for further process.

Step 10: Go to left side in the search option and write diskmgmt.mc in the
search tab.

22
Step 11: A window will open to select the partition style. You can select MBR
or GPT based on your choice –
• MBR – MBR supports simple volume storage allocation. It supports three
partition types i.e. primary, logical, and extended and here the maximum no.
of primary partition is 4. MBR supports 2TB disk space.
• GPT – GPT supports five types of storage allocation i.e. simple, spammed,
stripped, and mirrored and raid 5. GPT supports 128 GPT partitions. GPT
supports 10HB disk space.

Step 12: Right click on the unallocated option and select the “New Simple
Volume” option.

23
Step 13: Click next in the New Simple Volume wizard to continue.

Step 14: Choose a volume size that is between maximum and minimum sizes
and click next.

24
Step 15: For easy access you can assign a drive letter to your partition and click
next.

Step 16: Choose the file system type to format partition. Click next to continue.

25
Step 17: Complete the new simple volume wizard by clicking on the finish
button.

Step 18: A new virtual disk has been created with the specified size.

26
Step19: You can view the new virtual disk by going on My PC.

 ASSIGNMENT-3

AIM:
• To Shrink and Extend Virtual Disk in VMware
• To Add Mirrored Volume
• To Add Spanned Volume
• To Add Striped Volume
REQUIREMENT:
• VM Ware Workstation
• Virtual disk (60 GB)
SYSTEM REQUIREMENT:
• Windows operating system
• Storage capacity 1TB
• RAM 12GB
SHRINK AND EXTEND VIRTUAL DISK:
THEORY:
By default, VMware creates grow able disks that grow larger in size as you add
data. Unfortunately, they don’t automatically shrink when you remove data.
You’ll need to clean up or compact your disks to actually free up space on your
hard drive. Shrinking a virtual disk reclaims unused space in the virtual disk. If
there is empty space in the disk, this process reduces the amount of space the
virtual disk occupies on the host drive. Shrinking a disk is a two-step process:
• In the first step, called wiping, VMware Tools reclaims all unused portions of
disk partitions (such as deleted files) and prepares them for shrinking. Wiping
takes place in the guest operating system.
• The second step is the shrinking process itself, which takes place on the host.
Workstation reduces the size of the disk's files by the amount of disk space
reclaimed in the wipe process.

28
PROCEDURE:
Step 1: Go to left side in the search option and write control panel and then click
on it to open the control panel or you can directly open the disk management
by writing diskmgmt.mc in the search tab.

Step 2: To shrink the newly created virtual disk of 60GB right click on New
Volume (k) and select the shrink volume option.

29
Step 3: A shrink wizard will open where the new disk size is to be mentioned.
Now enter the amount of space to shrink in MB and click on the shrink button
to finally create the volume.

Step 4: A new volume of approximately 10GB is created. But the disk will not
be shown as the newly created disk is not yet allocated.

30
Step 5: To allocate the newly created virtual disk right click on the unallocated
disk and select the option for new simple volume. (Here we see in the image
that other for volume types are disabled as “New Mirrored Volume” and “New
RAID-5 Volume” is used for server virtualization.)

Step 6: Click next in the New Simple Volume wizard to continue.

31
Step 7: Choose a volume size that is between maximum and minimum sizes
and click next.

Step 8: For easy access you can assign a drive letter to your partition and click
next.

32
Step 9: Choose the file system type to format partition. Click next to continue.

Step 10: Complete the new simple volume wizard by clicking on the finish
button. Here we see the details of the disk are also available.

33
Step 11: The volumes that are allocated i.e. disk K can be extended. Here we
are extending disk K. so to extend disk K right click on disk K and select the
extend volume option.

Step 12: The extend volume wizard will open which helps you to increase the
size of simple and spanned volumes. Now click next to continue the process.

34
Step 13: The disk that needs to be extended is selected. Click the next button
to proceed.

Step 14: Click finish to end the extension process of the disk.

35
Step 15: The disk K is extended as per the requirement.

36
 TO ADD MIRRORED VOLUME:

Theory:
A mirrored volume is a hard drive or other form of storage media that stores
an exact copy of the data from another volume. It is used for fault tolerance,
which means mirrored volume serves as a backup device in case the primary
device fails.
Step1: Add a new virtual hard disk, the hard disk size should be same as the
volume you have created before.

Step2: A window will open to select the partition style. You can select MBR or
GPT based on your choice –

37
Step3: To allocate the newly created virtual disk right click on the unallocated
disk and select the option for New mirrored volume.

Step4: The mirrored volume wizard will open which helps you to duplicate
your data on two disks. Now click next to continue the process.

38
Step5: The disk that needs to be mirrored is selected. Click the add button.

Step6: After adding the add button click next button to process.

39
Step7: You can assign a drive letter to your partition and click next.

Step8: Choose the file system type to format partition. Click next to continue.

40
Step9: Complete the new mirrored volume wizard by clicking on the finish
button.

Step10: Formatting on the process.

41
 Step11: Now you can see that the new volume (B:) is in Mirrored layout.

TO ADD SPANNED VOLUME:

Theory:
Spanned volumes combine areas of unallocated space from multiple disks into
one logical volume. The areas of unallocated space can be different sizes.
Spanned volumes require two disks, and you can use up to 32 disks. When
creating spanned volumes, keep these points in mind:
• You can extend only NTFS volumes or unformatted volumes.
• After you create or extend a spanned volume, you cannot delete any
portion of it without deleting the entire spanned volume.

42
 • Spanned volumes do not provide fault tolerance. If one of the disks
containing a spanned volume fails, the entire volume fails, and all data
on the spanned volume becomes inaccessible. The reliability for a
spanned volume is less than the least reliable disk in the set.
Step1: To allocate the newly created virtual disk right click on the unallocated
disk and select the option for New Spanned volume.

Step2: The spanned volume wizard will open which helps you to made up a
disk space on more than one disk. Now click next to continue the process.

43
Step3: The disk that needs to be spanned is selected. Click the add button
and click next to process.

44
 Step4: You can assign a drive letter to your partition and click next.

Step5: Choose the file system type to format partition. Click next to continue.

45
Step6: Complete the new spanned volume wizard by clicking on the finish
button.

Step7: click yes to continue.

Step8: formatting on the process.

46
 Step9: Now you can see that the new volume (B:) is in Spanned layout.

TO ADD STRIPED VOLUME:

Theory
A striped volume is a dynamic volume that stores data in stripes on two
or more physical disks. Data in a striped volume is allocated alternately
and evenly (in stripes) across the disks. Striped volumes offer the best
performance of all the volumes that are available in Windows, but they do
not provide fault tolerance. If a disk in a striped volume fails, the data in
the entire volume is lost.

47
You can create striped volumes only on dynamic disks. Striped volumes
cannot be extended. You can create a striped volume onto a maximum of
32 dynamic disks.

Step1: To allocate the newly created virtual disk right click on the unallocated
disk and select the option for New Striped volume.

Step2: The Striped volume wizard will open which helps you to made up a disk
space on more than one disk. Now click next to continue the process.

48
Step3: The disk that needs to be Striped is selected. Click the add button
and click next to process.

Step4: You can assign a drive letter to your partition and click next.
49
Step5: choose the file system type to format partition. Click next to
continue.

50
Step6: Complete the new Striped volume wizard by clicking on the finish
button.

Step7: click yes to continue.

Step8: formatting on the process

51
Step9: Now you can see that the new volume (B:) is in Striped layout.

52
 ASSIGNMENT-4

AIM: To perform a Nested Virtualization.

REQUIREMENT:
• VMware workstation pro
• Windows 10 Operating System
THEORY:
Nested virtualization is the act of running a hypervisor inside a virtual
machine- effectively nesting a hypervisor within a hypervisor.

Nested virtualization can be useful for running multiple hypervisors on the

same host server. It is also an approach to learning about software
products, experimenting with server setups or testing configurations.
However, some hypervisor vendors do not support nested virtual
machines in a production environment. And, not all hypervisors and
operating system versions can nest successfully within all other
hypervisors.
