Historically we have not advertised host-passthrough because it was not recommended for general usage. That stance is softening, tools like gnome-boxes already set it as the default, and users continue to ask about it. We may change the default in virt-manager but it will take more discussion. This is a tiny move in the direction of hiding it less than we already do. Drop the label for host-model and call it by its libvirt XML name, since otherwise it's hard to tell which combo choice is for each value Signed-off-by: Cole Robinson <crobinso@redhat.com>
Virtual Machine Manager
virt-manager is a graphical tool for managing virtual machines
via libvirt. Most usage is with QEMU/KVM
virtual machines, but Xen and libvirt LXC containers are well
supported. Common operations for any libvirt driver should work.
Several command line tools are also provided:
virt-install: Create new libvirt virtual machinesvirt-clone: Duplicate existing libvirt virtual machinesvirt-xml: Edit existing libvirt virtual machines/manipulate libvirt XML
For dependency info and installation instructions, see the INSTALL.md file. If you just want to quickly test the code from a git checkout, you can launch any of the commands like:
./virt-manager --debug ...
