Could you build this?

No Building a clustered hypervisor with live migration over OCFS2 shared storage, snapshots, and per-guest firewalls requires deep Linux kernel, storage, and networking expertise that vibe coding cannot substitute for.

What it would actually take: Requires a Linux systems team building on KVM/QEMU and LXC with kernel-level networking (bridges, nftables/iptables), a cluster filesystem (OCFS2 with its DLM), and fencing and failover logic. Live migration and consistent snapshots demand careful engineering and extensive failure testing on real hardware. Realistically a multi-year effort for experienced infrastructure engineers.
