BCA, 7th sem
Lab 1: Create a Virtual Machine using Type II hypervisor of your choice (VMware Workstation or
VirtualBox) and install
a) ubuntu
b) windows 7 on it.

Theory:
Virtualization refers to the creation of virtual (rather than physical) versions of
computing resources such as servers, storage devices, and networks. It enhances IT
agility, flexibility, and scalability, while significantly reducing costs. Key benefits of
virtualization include:
 Improved Workload Mobility: Enables seamless transfer of workloads
between environments.
 Enhanced Performance and Resource Availability: Ensures optimal utilization
of hardware resources.
 Simplified IT Management: Streamlines operations through automation.
 Cost Savings: Reduces hardware and maintenance expenses.
Overall, virtualization simplifies IT infrastructure management and lowers the total
cost of ownership.

Procedure: Steps to install and configure VMWhere:


Follow the steps below to successfully install and configure VMware Workstation:
1. Download VMware Workstation
o Visit the official VMware website and download the latest trial version
of VMware Workstation.
2. Install VMware Workstation
o Run the setup file and follow the on-screen instructions.
o Click the Next button at each step to proceed through the installation
wizard.
3. Launch VMware Workstation
o Open VMware Workstation from the Start Menu or by using the
desktop shortcut.
4. Create a New Virtual Machine
o Click on Create a New Virtual Machine.
5. Select Configuration Type
o Choose Typical (recommended) and click Next.
6. Specify Installation Media
o Select the path to your operating system ISO file or installation media.
7. Enter License Key (Optional)
o If you are using a licensed version, enter the product key. This step can
be skipped when using a trial version.
8. Name the Virtual Machine
o Provide a name for your virtual machine.
o Choose a directory to save the virtual machine files. Ensure the
selected drive has sufficient storage space.
9. Allocate Disk Space
o Specify the disk size based on your software and usage requirements.
o Decide whether to store the virtual disk as a single file or split it into
multiple files.
10. Review Configuration Summary
o Check the configuration summary before proceeding.
11. Customize Hardware (Optional)
o Click Customize Hardware if you wish to adjust:
 Memory (RAM)
 Number of Processors and Cores
 Network Adapter
 Other hardware components
o Do not allocate all available RAM or CPU to the virtual machine, as this
may slow down the host system. Allocate just enough to run your
applications smoothly.
12. Finish Setup
o Click Finish to create the virtual machine with your specified settings.
o You can now power on the virtual machine and begin installing the
operating system.

Conclusion
Cloud computing delivers scalable and on-demand services to users through a model
known as measured service, where resources are monitored, controlled, and billed
based on usage. This is made possible through virtualization, which enables multiple
virtual environments to run on a single physical machine.
VMware, a leading virtualization platform, allows users to create and manage virtual
machines (VMs) on a single computer. These VMs operate independently, simulating
separate physical systems. This capability forms the backbone of cloud computing by
optimizing resource utilization, enhancing flexibility, and supporting infrastructure
scalability.
In essence, virtualization through tools like VMware is fundamental to realizing the
full potential of cloud computing.
Lab 2: Create a clone of created virtual machine and configure its networking to be
pingable from both ends.
Theory
VM migration refers to the process of moving a virtual machine from one physical
host to another. One commonly used migration method is cloning, which involves
creating an exact copy of an existing VM. The cloned VM can be used independently
or alongside the original VM for various purposes such as testing, backup, or
deployment.
There are two types of cloning in VMware:
1. Full Clone
o Creates a completely independent copy of the original VM.
o Includes a separate virtual disk, making it self-sufficient.
2. Linked Clone
o Creates a dependent copy that shares the virtual disk with the original
VM.
o Consumes less disk space, but requires the original VM to remain
available.
Cloning is useful in various scenarios like setting up testing environments, distributing
pre-configured VMs, and facilitating migration between systems. VMware
Workstation provides built-in features to streamline this process.

Procedure
1. Open VMware Workstation
o Launch VMware Workstation on the source machine.
2. Select the VM to Clone
o In the left-hand library panel, right-click on the desired VM.
o Go to Manage > Clone.
3. Choose the Clone Type
o Select either:
 Full Clone (for a completely independent VM), or
 Linked Clone (for a space-efficient dependent copy).
o Click Next.
4. Select Destination Location
o Specify the directory where you want to save the cloned VM.
o Click Finish to start the cloning process.
5. Transfer and Open the Cloned VM (if needed)
o Move the cloned VM files to another machine via USB, network, or
external drive.
o On the destination machine, open VMware Workstation.
o Go to File > Open, and select the cloned VM's .vmx file.
o Power on the virtual machine and configure settings if necessary
(network, hardware, etc.).

Conclusion
Through this practical, we successfully performed Virtual Machine (VM) migration
using the cloning method in VMware Workstation. We explored both Full Clone and
Linked Clone techniques and understood their respective use cases and advantages.
This exercise demonstrated that cloned VMs can be used either independently or
within a shared environment, offering a flexible and efficient approach to VM
migration. Cloning simplifies the process of duplicating virtual machines for backup,
testing, or deployment purposes, making it a valuable tool in virtualized and cloud-
based infrastructures.
Lab 3: Proceed
with the remote desktop connection from one
virtual machine to another one.

Lab 4: install
any application in first virtual machine.
Lab 5: Open the Google Docs and create any document and
share it to different email address.
Lab 6: Install
a C compiler in the virtual machine created using
virtual box and execute Simple Programs.
Lab 7: Create
a word document and store it in
a cloud environment(docs.google.com) / Google drive
