PRACTICAL - 2

Aim: Create type 2 virtualization in vmware. Allocate memory and storage space
as per requirement. Install guest os on that vmware.

Theory:
Type 2 virtualization, also known as hosted virtualization, involves running a
hypervisor on top of a host operating system. VMware Workstation is a popular
Type 2 hypervisor that allows users to create and manage multiple virtual
machines on their desktop or laptop computers. Each virtual machine can run its
own guest operating system, providing isolation and flexibility for various tasks.

Procedure :

1. Install VMware Workstation:


a. Download the VMware Workstation installer from the official website.
b. Follow the installation instructions provided by the installer for your
operating system.
c. Launch VMware Workstation once the installation is complete.
2. Create a New Virtual Machine:
a. Open VMware Workstation.
b. Click on "File" > "New Virtual Machine" to start the New Virtual Machine
Wizard.
c. Choose "Typical" configuration and click "Next".
3. Select Guest Operating System:
a. Choose the operating system you want to install as the guest OS. For
example, if you want to install Ubuntu, select "Linux" and then choose the
Ubuntu version from the dropdown menu.
b. Click "Next".
4. Allocate Memory:
a. Specify the amount of memory (RAM) to allocate to the virtual machine.
Allocate memory based on the requirements of the guest OS and the
applications you plan to run within it.
b. Click "Next".
5. Allocate Disk Space:
a. Choose whether to create a new virtual disk or use an existing one. For
this practical, let's create a new virtual disk.
b. Specify the disk capacity. Allocate disk space based on the requirements
of the guest OS and the applications you plan to install.
c. Choose whether to store the virtual disk as a single file or split into
multiple files.
d. Click "Next".
6. Customize Hardware (Optional):
a. You can customize hardware settings such as CPU cores, network
adapter, display resolution, etc., according to your requirements.
b. Once customization is complete, click "Finish" to create the virtual
machine.
7. Install Guest Operating System:
a. Start the virtual machine by clicking "Power on this virtual machine".
b. Follow the prompts to install the guest operating system within the virtual
machine. Insert the installation media (e.g., ISO file) if required.
c. Complete the installation process by following the on-screen instructions
provided by the guest OS installer.
