virt-manager - display the virtual machine desktop management tool

virt-manager [OPTIONS]

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.

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

Display command line help summary
Show virt-manager's version number and exit
Specify the hypervisor connection "URI"
List debugging output to the console (normally this is only logged in ~/.cache/virt-manager/virt-manager.log). This function implies --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.
Display the corresponding "DIALOG-WINDOW" when launching "virt-manager". Connection autostart is skipped, and the manager window will not be shown at startup in this case.

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

Display the wizard for creating new virtual machines
Display the dialog for editing properties of the virtual machine with unique ID matching either the domain name, ID, or UUID
Display the dialog for monitoring performance of the virtual machine with unique ID matching either the domain name, ID, or UUID
Display the virtual console of the virtual machine with unique ID matching either the domain name, ID, or UUID
Display the main window summarizing performance for all virtual machines on the host.

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