Some related bits were discussed here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/virt-tools-list/2019-June/msg00117.html macvtap is problematic for inexperienced users so we shouldn't be broadly advertising it, plus our device listing was incomplete anyways. Both bridge and macvtap device listing are largely dependent on the libvirt virInterface APIs, which have varying degrees of completeness across distros and are not particularly reliable to begin with. Drop both of these in favor of the available support for manually specifying a device name 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 ...
