Hi folks -
We’ve been batting around ideas for the virtualization guides for a bit now in irc, but I’d like to get some more feedback on the approach we can take.
Seems there are two personas involved. Using our draft personas we have :
Technical Tony - experienced IT person virtualizing on servers etc, knows his stuff and is spinning up VMs like they’re candy.
Novice Ned (or Novice Nancy in my case :-) - Fairly new to virtualization, and looking to spin up a VM or two for her own work.
Given these two personas, I’d like to suggest that the Virtualization Getting Started guide be targeted to Novice Nancy. To do this we would:
Add an installing virtualization tools chapter - simple effort to install the virtualization group package and bring up virt-manager. (smccann)
Add an ‘Creating Guests with Virt-Manager chapter - copying from here. (smccann)
Adding a ‘Creating Guests with Boxes chapter (grundblom)
Make minor edits as needed to remove Fedora 19 references and any references (if present) to a larger set of virtualization guides that may not be available as F21 guides yet.
I also had one question -
not sure what to do about the list of emulated devices - is it accurate? http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Virtualization_Getting_Started_Guide/sec-virtualized-hardware-devices.html
Anyway, I’d like to get the getting started done and committed before considering the Admin and Deploy guide (because..ahem.. I AM Novice Nancy here and it will take longer for me to parse that guide).
Thoughts?
Sandra
