Daniel P. Berrangé e1c8866163 virtinst: validate that the CPU topology is sane
The product of sockets * dies * cores * threads must be equal to the
vCPU count. While libvirt and QEMU will report this error scenario,
it makes sense to catch it in virt-install, so we can test our local
logic for setting defaults for topology.

This exposes some inconsistent configurations in the test suite.

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 ...
