&lt;div&gt;= kvm-admin =&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What it does?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It offer the possibility to manage a qemu guest via commandline.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reason to build was to have a simple tool to manage my own qemu guest. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just to use it for qemu guest to connect to a bridged network.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Howto use it =&lt;br /&gt;
Examples:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin boot domain_name&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin status domain_name&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin status all&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin  monitor domain_name&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin show domain_name&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Features =&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s add a bridge to a given bridge from qemu-kvm domain configuration file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bridge(s) have to exists.&lt;br /&gt;
There can individual bridges on the system and each qemu-kvm domain can assign to different bridge. &lt;br /&gt;
No need to add many script files and scriptdown files. &lt;br /&gt;
This is set automaticly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Configuration File Format =&lt;br /&gt;
The qemu-kvm domain configuration file are placed in the directory &#039;domains&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
The format is taken 1:1 from the command line but separated by new line&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To use an qemu-kvm option which doesn&#039;t have a parameter you have to use:&lt;br /&gt;
  variable = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Global configuration variabales which all qemu-kvm domains should effected, &lt;br /&gt;
can write in &#039;config/kvm.cfg&#039; file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Example:&lt;br /&gt;
  # have to set the path to qemu-kvm or name&lt;br /&gt;
  # the script generate-kvm-option does update the path&lt;br /&gt;
  qemu-kvm = qemu-system-x86_x84&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  daemonize = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
  localtime = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Example output for a qemu-kvm domain:&lt;br /&gt;
  # if name is not set it will use the filename as name &lt;br /&gt;
  name = my_guest&lt;br /&gt;
  smp = 2&lt;br /&gt;
  m = 1024&lt;br /&gt;
  # first drive&lt;br /&gt;
  drive = file:/path_to_image_or_lvm,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  # second drive&lt;br /&gt;
  drive = file:/path_to_image_or_lvm,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  cdrom = my_installer.iso&lt;br /&gt;
  daemonize = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
  localtime = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only one exception exists.&lt;br /&gt;
This is only for the &#039;-net tap&#039; option.&lt;br /&gt;
There have to add an option for the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An example for tap option when using &#039;-net nic&#039;:&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  # first network interface&lt;br /&gt;
  net = nic,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  net = tap,bridge=br0&lt;br /&gt;
  # second network interface&lt;br /&gt;
  net = nic,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  net = tap,bridge=br1&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
via mercurial:&lt;br /&gt;
  hg clone https://hg.kasten-edv.de/kvm-tools --insecure&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Installation =&lt;br /&gt;
Please read the README for further information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Security=&lt;br /&gt;
To run the kvm process under a unprivileged user.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Add an user &#039;kvm&#039; and add this in to the qemu-kvm domain configuration file.&lt;br /&gt;
  runas = kvm&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For each qemu-kvm domain you can assign an individual user.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When all qemu-kvm domains should run as the user &#039;kvm&#039; then add this in the global configurations file &#039;config/kvm.cfg&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
  runas = kvm&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When is set in &#039;config/kvm.cfg&#039; the qemu-kvm domain configuration file  can override it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= ToDo =&lt;br /&gt;
  * extend the installer script &lt;br /&gt;
  * build a init script&lt;br /&gt;
  * build an installation routine&lt;br /&gt;
  * add possibility to automatic create and delete guest&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;= kvm-admin =&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What it does?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
It offer the possibility to manage a qemu-kvm domain via commandline.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Howto use it =&lt;br /&gt;
Example, to get monitor&#039;s help:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin  monitor my_domain &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To get the command printed:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin show my_guest&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Boot a guest:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin boot my_guest&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Features =&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s add a bridge to a given bridge from guest configuration file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bridge(s) have to exists.&lt;br /&gt;
There can individual bridges on the system and each guest can assign to different bridge. &lt;br /&gt;
No need to add many script files and scriptdown files. &lt;br /&gt;
This is set automaticly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Configuration File Format =&lt;br /&gt;
The qemu-kvm domain configuration file are placed in the directory &#039;domains&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
The format is taken 1:1 from the command line but separated by new line&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To use an qemu-kvm option which doesn&#039;t have a parameter you have to use:&lt;br /&gt;
  variable = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Global configuration variabales which all qemu-kvm domains should effected, &lt;br /&gt;
can write in &#039;config/kvm.cfg&#039; file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Example:&lt;br /&gt;
  # have to set the path to qemu-kvm or name&lt;br /&gt;
  # the script generate-kvm-option does update the path&lt;br /&gt;
  qemu-kvm = kvm, qemu-kvm&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  daemonize = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
  localtime = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Example output for a qemu-kvm domain:&lt;br /&gt;
  # if name is not set it will use the filename as name &lt;br /&gt;
  name = my_guest&lt;br /&gt;
  smp = 2&lt;br /&gt;
  m = 1024&lt;br /&gt;
  # first drive&lt;br /&gt;
  drive = file:/path_to_image_or_lvm,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  # second drive&lt;br /&gt;
  drive = file:/path_to_image_or_lvm,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  cdrom = my_installer.iso&lt;br /&gt;
  daemonize = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
  localtime = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only one exception exists.&lt;br /&gt;
This is only for the &#039;-net tap&#039; option.&lt;br /&gt;
There have to add an option for the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An example for tap option when using &#039;-net nic&#039;:&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  # first network interface&lt;br /&gt;
  net = nic,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  net = tap,bridge=br0&lt;br /&gt;
  # second network interface&lt;br /&gt;
  net = nic,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  net = tap,bridge=br1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Download = &lt;br /&gt;
It can be downloaded on the mercurial repository on:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
via Webbrowser:&lt;br /&gt;
  http://hg.kasten-edv.de/kvm-tools (klick on bzip,gzip or zip link)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
via mercurial:&lt;br /&gt;
  hg clone http://hg.kasten-edv.de/kvm-tools --insecure&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Installation =&lt;br /&gt;
Please read the README for further information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Security=&lt;br /&gt;
To run the kvm process under a unprivileged user.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Add an user &#039;kvm&#039; and add this in to the qemu-kvm domain configuration file.&lt;br /&gt;
  runas = kvm&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For each qemu-kvm domain you can assign an individual user.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When all qemu-kvm domains should run as the user &#039;kvm&#039; then add this in the global configurations file &#039;config/kvm.cfg&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
  runas = kvm&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When is set in &#039;config/kvm.cfg&#039; the qemu-kvm domain configuration file  can override it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= ToDo =&lt;br /&gt;
  * extend the installer script &lt;br /&gt;
  * build a init script&lt;br /&gt;
  * build an installation routine&lt;br /&gt;
  * add possibility to automatic create and delete guest&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Fixes =&lt;br /&gt;
The ordinary fixes :)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Example, to get monitor&#039;s help:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
kvm-admin my_guest monitor help&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Featurs =&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s add a bridge to a given bridge from guest configuration file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The bridge(s) have to exists.&lt;br /&gt;
There can individual bridges on the system and each guest can assign to different bridge. &lt;br /&gt;
No need to add many script files and scriptdown files. &lt;br /&gt;
This is set automatic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Configuration File Format =&lt;br /&gt;
The guest configuration file have to placed in the directory &#039;domains&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
The format is taken 1:1 from the command line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Global configuration varibales, which all guest should effected, &lt;br /&gt;
can write in &#039;config/kvm.cfg&#039; file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Exampe:&lt;br /&gt;
  deamonize = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
  localtime = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To use an qemu-kvm option which don&#039;t have a parameter, have to use:&lt;br /&gt;
  variable = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Example format:&lt;br /&gt;
  name = my_guest&lt;br /&gt;
  smp = 2&lt;br /&gt;
  m = 1024&lt;br /&gt;
  drive = file:/path_to_image_or_lvm,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
  cdrom = my_installer.iso&lt;br /&gt;
  daemonize = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
  localtime = enabled&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only one exception exist.&lt;br /&gt;
This is only for the &#039;-net tap&#039; option.&lt;br /&gt;
There have to add an option for the bridge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  net = nic,[and other options]&lt;br /&gt;
An example for tap option:&lt;br /&gt;
  net = tap,ifname=my_guest,bridge=br0&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
