@ProfessorCode I believe more people are using #kvm based #virtualization instead of #virtualbox. So there should be more, and better guides for installing #virtmanager, #gnomeboxes or using #Virsh. But also why these guides are unnecessary verbose I suspect its because of #seo so the webpages get ranked higher in #google index, and have more views which should corespond to increased #ad revenue.

Создание образа в Cloud-init

Всем привет! Это первая моя статья на Хабре, поэтому судите по всей строгости! Я рыскал по просторам интернетов и не нашел простой информации по созданию своими руками образа cloud-init, поэтому своими глазами изучал официальные маны и методом проб и ошибок теперь имею представление о том, как всё же запустить этот интересный и полезный инструмент!

Wait, libvirt/virsh still doesn't support setting up port forwarding for VMs? Why can't I configure this in XML?

Refubrishing #virsh, the #libvirt cli.
This is how I like my #vm to be displayed.

#qemu
#sysadmin
#nixos
#rust

Does anyone know a replacement for the #virsh cli before I get to deep into building one?

I am refactoring a #typescript prototype into #rust.
It mainly takes #toml machine definition instead of #xml.

#libvirt
#qemu
#virtualisation
#vm

@jarkko what exactly do you need XML for? Is this just a carrier for the machine configuration.. in which case why not just use libvirt? You could always use #virsh to trigger an edit of the machine description if you want to change the kernel you boot in a particular domain.
Hey #libvirt #virsh people.
#oVirt had this great feature of "one shot"-starts, where regardless of whether the VM performs a reboot or shuts down, the VM will halt.
Does anyone know where I can find documentation about this feature?
