Mohammed, Yes - you can install distributed cloud in a VirtualBox or KVM environment. We don't have specific instructions for this - you would have to follow the distributed cloud documentation but modify the procedure to line up with the documentation for installing virtual servers. As you mention below, the networking setup may be complex if you are trying to run the System Controller on bare metal with virtual subclouds. You are on your own for that.

While installing Stx Distribute Cloud Platform on a bare metal environment (Central Cloud on a server located in Carleton University and a sub cloud on personal off-campus server), we run into networking issues mostly related to the VPN. We think of considering AIO deployment on a virtual environment (either VirtualBox, or KVM). Just wanted to confirm whether Stx Distributed Cloud deployment can be installed on a virtual environment as long as the network (i.e. OAM and management networks) and resource (CPU, RAM and Storage) requirements are fulfilled. We're wondering as the current distributed cloud documentation considers only the bare metal case. Any reply is highly appreciated!
