Lab Environment

Oracle VM VirtualBox #

We will use VirtualBox to deploy our test VMs. Some labs will be done on Docker, so if you already have a Docker engine, you can use it instead of deploying a new VM.

Please proceed with the VirtualBox installation following the procedure for your system:

HashiCorp Vagrant #

We will use Vagrant to automatically deploy test environments. To learn more about Vagrant, you can follow our dedicated training.

Please proceed with the Vagrant installation following the procedure for your system:

From Concept to Expertise #

We have preconfigured a repo for the training.

1. Git Repo

   You can use the command below to clone the repo:

   git clone https://github.com/RousselTM/kubernetes-formation

2. Environment Choice

   Test environment configurations are located in the tp folder. This folder contains several subfolders, each corresponding to a test environment: simple VM, VM with Docker, VM with application... Depending on the lab, we will specify which one to use:

   cd kubernetes-formation/tp/kind

3. Environment Creation

   Once in the folder corresponding to the desired environment, you can launch the environment creation on VirtualBox with the following Vagrant command:

   vagrant up

4. VM Access

   You can access the VM by running the following command:

   vagrant ssh kind-formation
