control-vm.sh

Table of Contents

This repository contains a simple bash script to start and stop virtual machines run by QEMU and KVM and to connect to them via SSH or VNC or SPICE.

The newest version can be probably found on https://git.holgersson.xyz/nfr/control-vm.

Note
 While the author already runs this software in "production" on his private setup he would still conside some parts as beta quality. As usual it’s strongly recommended to create backups first and read through the bash script to understand roughly what it does.

Installation

Please install the following tools which are used by the script:

Usage

./control-vm.sh <name of your virtual machine> start | shutdown | stop | connect | save | restore | pause | resume"
Note
 You do not see any 'setup' command there as I’ve implemented no one-shot boot from ISO so far.
