[OmniOS-discuss] Managing KVM virtual machines

[Filip Marvan]

Hello,

 

I'm running virtual machines on KVM in OmniOS. It works great, but I would
like to know, if there is any way, how to manage that virtual machines more
comfortably.

 

If I create a transient service for every virtual guest (transient, because
I don't want to start that virtual machine again when I shutdown the system
directly from the guest), but as service is transient, it seems to be still
"online" even guest is not running anymore so I have no knowledge from
OmniOS, if this virtual machine is running or not. So Is there any other
way, how to find which virtual machines are running?

 

Of course I can shutdown virtualmachine with: 

 

svcadm disable virtualmachine

 

But sometimes ACPI is not working or is blocked by some reason, si I have to
shutdown system directly from guest.

So how can I see, which KVM virtual machines are really running?

 

Thank you very much for any help,

Filip Marvan
