Description: desktop application for managing virtual machines
The virt-manager application is a desktop user interface for managing virtual
machines through libvirt. It primarily targets KVM VMs, but also manages Xen
and LXC (Linux containers). It presents a summary view of running domains,
their live performance & resource utilization statistics. Wizards enable the
creation of new domains, and configuration & adjustment of a domain's resource
allocation & virtual hardware. An embedded VNC and SPICE client viewer
presents a full graphical console to the guest domain.
