virsh

Motivation

I need to manage virtual machines under kvm which is installed on my Gen8 micro-server.

Introduction

virsh is a command line tool for managing guests and the hypevisor. This tool is built on the libvirt management API and operates as an alternative to the xm tool and the graphical guest Manager virt-manager. Unprivileged users can employ this utility for read-only operations.

Usage

Please refer to Managing guests with virsh.
