Running Rocky Linux 9.4 for the KVM host

Network Interface
ens192 = Slave of cloudbr0 bridge. Untagged VLAN for management.
ens224 = Slave of cloudbr1 bridge. Tagged VLANs for public and guest networks.

You can refer to the steps that I used to configure a KVM compute node below:

Install CloudStack agent.

```bash
tmux
dnf -y install -y epel-release cloudstack-agent
```

```bash
systemctl mask libvirtd.socket libvirtd-ro.socket libvirtd-admin.socket libvirtd-tls.socket libvirtd-tcp.socket

nano /etc/sysconfig/libvirtd
--------------------------------------------------------
LIBVIRTD_ARGS="--listen"
--------------------------------------------------------
```

In order to allow QEMU VNC to listen to ANY address, you must configure the /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf file.

```bash

nano /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
--------------------------------------------------------
vnc_listen=0.0.0.0
--------------------------------------------------------
```

Restart libvirt

```bash
systemctl enable libvirtd
systemctl restart libvirtd
systemctl status libvirtd
```

Configure CPU model for KVM guest

```bash
nano /etc/cloudstack/agent/agent.properties
--------------------------------------------------------
guest.cpu.mode=host-model
--------------------------------------------------------
```

Reboot the machine first for good measure before adding to the cluster.

```bash
reboot now
```
