= Prerequisites
You must meet the following prerequisites to create an {product-title} cluster on {VirtProductName}:
* You have administrator access to an {product-title} cluster, version 4.14 or later, specified in the `KUBECONFIG` environment variable.
* The {product-title} management cluster must have wildcard DNS routes enabled, as shown in the following command:
+
[source,terminal]
----
$ oc patch ingresscontroller -n openshift-ingress-operator default \
--type=json \
-p '[{ "op": "add", "path": "/spec/routeAdmission", "value": {wildcardPolicy: "WildcardsAllowed"}}]'
----
* The {product-title} management cluster has {VirtProductName}, version 4.14 or later, installed on it. For more information, see "Installing OpenShift Virtualization using the web console".
* The {product-title} management cluster is on-premise bare metal.
* The {product-title} management cluster must be configured with `OVNKubernetes` as the default pod network Container Network Interface (CNI). Live migration is supported for nodes only if the CNI is OVN-Kubernetes.
* The {product-title} management cluster has a default storage class. For more information, see "Postinstallation storage configuration". The following example shows how to set a default storage class:
+
[source,terminal]
----
$ oc patch storageclass ocs-storagecluster-ceph-rbd \
-p '{"metadata": {"annotations":{"storageclass.kubernetes.io/is-default-class":"true"}}}'
----
* You have a valid pull secret file for the `quay.io/openshift-release-dev` repository. For more information, see "Install OpenShift on any x86_64 platform with user-provisioned infrastructure".
* You have installed the hosted control plane command-line interface.
* You have configured a load balancer. For more information, see "Configuring MetalLB".
* For optimal network performance, you are using a network maximum transmission unit (MTU) of 9000 or greater on the {product-title} cluster that hosts the KubeVirt virtual machines. If you use a lower MTU setting, network latency and the throughput of the hosted pods are affected. Enable multiqueue on node pools only when the MTU is 9000 or greater.
+
[IMPORTANT]
====
You cannot change the MTU value for your cluster as a postinstallation task.
====
* The {mce-short} has at least one managed {product-title} cluster. The `local-cluster` is automatically imported. For more information about the `local-cluster`, see "Advanced configuration" in the {mce-short} documentation. You can check the status of your hub cluster by running the following command:
+
[source,terminal]
----
$ oc get managedclusters local-cluster
----
* On the {product-title} cluster that hosts the {VirtProductName} virtual machines, you are using a `ReadWriteMany` (RWX) storage class so that live migration can be enabled.
