I'm referring to this guide by /u/IConrad.
I've started (set up KVM, started making the Spacewalk server), but I'm not sure I have the hardware to complete this. It seems like all told you need to be running several servers and a grand total of something like 17 VMs to pursue this.
I'm down for it, but I'm not sure my PC is. I have no home lab, so I'm building in Linux desktop. What kind of specs do I need to make this happen? My desktop is an Intel i5 with 8GB of RAM. I'm fairly certain given the servers needed I'm probably going to need to double that, and I'm guessing I'm going to need something in the realm of 200-ish GB of storage for VMs total.
Can anyone who's actually followed this guide chime in with the hardware they used while learning, and give me an idea if I'm on track here and if I can virtualize this on my desktop? And if not, what consumer grade hardware I can get to get it done (I do not have space for a full home lab, so even if I need additional equipment I need to keep it small)?
Thanks!
