10.2. Viewing virtual machine information by using the web console
By using the web console, you can access a virtualization overview that contains summarized information about available virtual machines (VMs), disks, storage pools, and networks.
Prerequisites
- The web console VM plugin is installed on your system.
Procedure
Click in the web console’s side menu.
A dialog box appears with information about the available storage pools, available networks, and the VMs to which the web console is connected.
The information includes the following:
- Storage Pools - The number of storage pools, active or inactive, that can be accessed by the web console and their state.
- Networks - The number of networks, active or inactive, that can be accessed by the web console and their state.
- Name - The name of the VM.
- Connection - The type of libvirt connection, system or session.
- State - The state of the VM.
- Resource usage - Memory and virtual CPU usage of the VM.
Disks - Detailed information about disks assigned to the VM.
注意Changes to the virtual network interface settings take effect only after restarting the VM.
Additionally, MAC address can only be modified when the VM is shut off.
