8.11 Virtual Machines
Virtualization allows multiple operating system instances to run simultaneously on a single computer system, with each system running inside its own virtual machine. The Virtual Machines Cockpit extension provides a way to create and manage the virtual machine guests installed on the server.
Figure 8-10
The Virtual Machines extension is not installed by default but can be added via the Cockpit Applications screen or by running the following command:
# apt install cockpit-machines
The use of virtualization with Ubuntu is covered starting with the chapter entitled “An Overview of Virtualization Techniques”.
