virt-viewer: Wait for a virtual machine to start and automatically reconnect if it shutdown and restarts.
$ virt-viewer --reconnect --wait "${domain}"
try on your machine
The virt-viewer
command is used to display the graphical console of a virtual machine. The --reconnect
option allows you to reconnect to a previously disconnected virtual machine session. The --wait
option stands for waiting for the specified virtual machine to become available.
In this particular command, the value of the ${domain}
variable is provided as an argument, which represents the unique identifier or name of the virtual machine you want to reconnect and wait for.
So, the command virt-viewer --reconnect --wait "${domain}"
means to reconnect to the virtual machine specified by ${domain}
and wait for it to become available if it is currently disconnected.
