qm-monitor: Enter the QEMU Monitor interface of a specific virtual machine.
$ qm monitor ${vm_id}
try on your machine

This command is using the "qm" command-line tool to monitor a virtual machine with a specific ID.

Here's a breakdown of the components:

  • "qm" is a command-line tool used for managing QEMU/KVM virtual machines on Linux systems.
  • "monitor" is one of the commands available in the "qm" tool. It allows you to interact with the monitor of a virtual machine.
  • "${vm_id}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual ID of the virtual machine you want to monitor. The ID is usually a numeric value.

When you run this command with the correct virtual machine ID, it will open the monitor interface for that particular virtual machine, giving you access to various commands to manage and monitor its state.
