Michal Privoznik 34c47c1527 Update domain title/description on corresponding event
If a domain is edited outside of virt-manager (e.g. via virsh
edit) then this is reflected in the GUI (in the domain HW details
tab). However, if domain title or description is updated outside
of virt-manager (virsh desc) then this change is not reflected.
This is simply because the corresponding event emitted by libvirt
is not listened to.

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 machines
  • virt-clone: Duplicate existing libvirt virtual machines
  • virt-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 ...
