One of the potential options for Acme Financial Services is to adopt Red Hat OpenShift Virtualisation as a container native virtualisation platform.
Your hackathon team are the pre-sales team engaging with Acme technical teams to secure buy-in for a large scale migration to proceed.

As a sales team you've got an upcoming demo with the Acme Financial Services linux team. They are concerned a modern cloud native virtualisation platform like OpenShift Virtualistion won't support running their **Crusty Corp Financial Appliance™** vm appliances which run Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.0 and cannot be updated or altered in any way 🤯.

The deal rests on your teams ability to prove that an old operating system will boot successfully within OpenShift Virtualisation.
The Acme team are well aware these virtual machines would not be "supported" but ultimately the deal rests on your teams ability to prove that an old operating system will boot successfully within OpenShift Virtualisation.

summary: "How do we optimally balance virtual machine workloads in OpenShift?"

Acme Financial Services have agreed to run a small scale proof of concept for OpenShift Virtualisation.
They have spun up a bare metal OpenShift cluster, installed OpenShift Virtualisation and now have a small number of virtual machines running.
One of the goals of the pilot is to ensure their virtual machine workloads will run efficiently on their new infrastructure and continually auto balance over time based on available underlying infrastructure capacity so they don't have some nodes much busier than others.
The Acme team are stuck on how they might implement this goal within the poc. They told you they found some documentation online on this thing called "deschedular" but didn't have any luck setting it up.
Your pre-sales team have offered to setup an example environment for them and give them a quick demo on how it works.
## 3.1 - Install de-schedular operator
...
## 3.2 - Enabling evictions for a virtual machine
...
## 3.3 - Check your work
If you've successfully enabled deschedular evictions for a virtual machine please post a message in `#rh-hackathon-ocp-virt` with the message:
