NAME

       virt-manager - display the virtual machine desktop management tool

SYNOPSIS

       virt-manager [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       virt-manager is a desktop tool for managing virtual machines. It provides the ability to
       control the lifecycle of existing machines (bootup/shutdown,pause/resume,suspend/restore),
       provision new virtual machines and various types of store, manage virtual networks, access
       the graphical console of virtual machines, and view performance statistics, all done
       locally or remotely.

OPTIONS

       The following options are accepted when running "virt-manager":

       -h
       --help
           Display command line help summary

       --version
           Show virt-manager's version number and exit

       -c URI
       --connect=URI
           Specify the hypervisor connection "URI"

       --debug
           List debugging output to the console (normally this is only logged in
           ~/.cache/virt-manager/virt-manager.log). This function implies --no-fork.

       --no-fork
           Don't fork "virt-manager" off into the background: run it blocking the current
           terminal. Useful for seeing possible errors dumped to stdout/stderr.

       --no-conn-autostart
           Don't autostart any libvirt connections when launching "virt-manager".

       --show-DIALOG-WINDOW
           Display the corresponding "DIALOG-WINDOW" when launching "virt-manager". This function
           implies --no-conn-autostart and the manager window will not be shown at startup in
           this case.

           The following "DIALOG-WINDOW" options are currently available:

           --show-domain-creator
               Display the wizard for creating new virtual machines

           --show-domain-editor NAME|ID|UUID
               Display the dialog for editing properties of the virtual machine with unique ID
               matching either the domain name, ID, or UUID

           --show-domain-performance NAME|ID|UUID
               Display the dialog for monitoring performance of the virtual machine with unique
               ID matching either the domain name, ID, or UUID

           --show-domain-console NAME|ID|UUID
               Display the virtual console of the virtual machine with unique ID matching either
               the domain name, ID, or UUID

           --show-host-summary
               Display the main window summarizing performance for all virtual machines on the
               host.

           --spice-disable-auto-usbredir
               Auto USB redirection is supported by default. This option switches off it.

       Standard GTK options like --g-fatal-warnings are also accepted.
