Package Information

Description:: Virtual Machine Manager provides a graphical tool for managing libvirt virtual machines. On Gentoo it supports KVM, Xen, and LXC backends. It provides a GUI for not only running VMs but also managing their settings and monitoring usage statistics. The software does not limit you to using the graphical tools though: it allows for editing the XML config files directly.
