virt-manager: Connect to a hypervisor.

virt-manager

$ virt-manager --connect ${hypervisor_uri}

try on your machine

The command "virt-manager --connect ${hypervisor_uri}" is used to launch the Virt-Manager application and connect to a specific hypervisor or virtualization host.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

"virt-manager": This is the command to start the Virt-Manager application. Virt-Manager is a graphical user interface (GUI) tool used for managing virtual machines.
"--connect": This is an option/flag used with the "virt-manager" command. It specifies that the application should establish a connection with a hypervisor.
"${hypervisor_uri}": This is a placeholder variable that should be replaced with the actual URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) of the desired hypervisor. The value of the URI will depend on the type of hypervisor being used. For example, for the KVM hypervisor, the URI could be "qemu:///system".

By providing the correct hypervisor URI, the "virt-manager --connect" command will establish a connection, allowing you to manage and interact with the virtual machines running on that hypervisor using the Virt-Manager GUI.
