With User Mode Linux you can create virtual Linux machines within a Linux
computer and use them to safely test and debug applications, network
services, and even kernels. You can try out new distributions, experiment
with buggy software, and even test security. Now, for the first time, the
creator and maintainer of User Mode Linux shows how to put it to work
hands-on. Jeff Dike covers everything from getting started through
running enterprise-class User Mode Linux servers. You'll find
authoritative advice on bootup, compilation, administration, specialized
Coverage includes:
- What User Mode Linux is, how it works, and its uses in Linux networks
- Key applications, including server consolidation, development, and
disaster recovery
- Booting and exploration: logins, consoles, swap space, partitioned
disks, and more
- Copy-On-Write (COW): UML's efficient approach to storing filesystem
changes
- In-depth discussion of User Mode Linux networking and security
- Centrally managing User Mode Linux instances, and controlling their
hardware resources
- Implementing clusters and other specialized configurations
- Setting up User Mode Linux servers, step-by-step: small-scale and
large-scale examples
- The future of virtualization and User Mode Linux
Whether you're a netadmin, sysadmin, teacher, student, or programmer,
