[libvirt-users] web frontend for managing libvirt servers

Hi all, I know that redhat has some web based GUI for managing libvirt clusters, however, I am not having purchased redhat :-) Is there any good open-source web frontend you can recommend for managing your libvirt instances? Ideally with VNC/spice support for connecting to the remote? I know of proxmox, which we used so far for our openvz containers, but I am about to migrate to KVM (and possibly linux-vserver / LXC). Many thanks, Christian.

Check out the oVirt project: www.ovirt.org sounds like exactly what you're looking for. /me thinks we need a new FAQ entry--you're the second person to ask that question in a week. Dave
Many thanks, Christian.

You mean like the 'Apps' page, we have linked at the top of our website left navbar on every page :-) http://libvirt.org/apps.html Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|

oh, sorry, I could have checked for recent threads first :) However, I remember I once (dunno remember when) have been visiting that apps page, but wasn't really very happy about the results, which - at that time - either looked half baked or commercial. I'll try ovirt then :) on the other hand, some (kind of) official web front end might be really very cool, too :) Many thanks, Christian. On Tue, Jan 17, 2012 at 7:48 PM, Daniel P.

then have a look at archipel. but many linux mags write it need some more developement. its all in all beta status and frickling. but when archipel is finished it will be a nice one. Am 17.01.2012 21:23, schrieb Christian Parpart:
