Virtual Machine Manager 0.5.4 (Default branch)
Image The Virtual Machine Manager (virt-manager for short) is a desktop application for managing virtual machines. Since it uses libvirt, it is capable of managing machines from any hypervisor supported by libvirt. Xen is the current primary target. The application's views provide summaries and detailed statistics on performance and resource utilization. A wizard facilitates creation of new guest domains, both para-virtualized and fully-virtualized. Console access is enabled either to a text based serial console or fully graphical access via an embedded VNC client. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Smooth resize of the guest console, support for all libvirt authentication methods including Kerberos and PolicyKit, a Solaris portability fix for the text console, and support for detecting bonding and VLAN devices for attaching guest NICs. fullvirt guests are now allowed to install off kernel and initrd as well as existing CD-ROM methods. Invocation of DBus methods was fixed to use an interface. Setting of autostart flag and changing boot device ordering is now allowed. New VM creation is controlled based on declared hypervisor capabilities.Image

       the graphical console of virtual machines, and view performance statistics, all done locally or remotely.

	   Display the dialog for monitoring performance of the virtual machine with unique ID matching "UUID"
