Desktop tool for managing virtual machines via libvirt
ea99784d27
The convenient 'source' abstraction is not sufficient in all cases, like is using type=network with a forward mode=bridge network: on startup, the qemu driver will change the runtime XML to type=bridge but still list a source network= and bridge= value. |

Virtual Machine Manager
This application provides a graphical tool for managing virtual machines via the libvirt library.
The front end of the application uses the GTK / Glade libraries for all user interaction components. The back end uses libvirt for managing Qemu/KVM and Xen virtual machines, as well as LXC containers. The UI is primarily tested with KVM, but is intended to be reasonably portable to any virtualization backend libvirt supports.
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 XMLvirt-convert
: Convert VMX or OVF configs to libvirt virtual machines
For dependency info and installation instructions, see the INSTALL.md file.
