Virt-Manager is a graphical UI for virtual machines run by Qemu/KVM, libvirt (and others).
Spice is a protocol for sharing devices and data between host and guests.
How to start
Packages needed on the host are qemu-kvm, virt-manager, and virt-viewer.
Create a system group libvirt as root
- Code: Select all
# groupadd --system libvirt
Assign your user to it
- Code: Select all
# usermod -aG libvirt <user-name>
This also could be implemented in MCC. System groups have group IDs lower than 1000.
The Virtual Machines are owned by root. The isos and paths should be readable by group qemu.
If you want to run a virtual machine as a regular user, uncomment these lines in /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf
- Code: Select all
unix_sock_group = "libvirt"
unix_sock_rw_perms = "0770"
