Bhyve support in Libvirt

2014-03-31 Thread Roman Bogorodskiy
Hi!

I was suggested it'd be useful to share that info on this list.

The news is that libvirt 1.2.2 released around a month ago was the first
libvirt version with Bhyve support!

Libvirt is the virtualization library which aims to provide a unified
API for hypervisors (and actually even more things, storage for
example). Libvirt webpage is here: http://libvirt.org/

I've provided some more details in a blog post I wrote couple of weeks
ago:

also, there is some info on the Qemu driver status as well in the blog, if
you're interested.

This is a huge step forward for bhyve!  Thank you!
There is a sizable ecosystem of software for managing hypervisors built on
top of libvirt.

Have you tested any of this software, such as virsh?
Are there any GUI or web UI utilities built on top of libvirt
which work with bhyve?

virsh is an official client that is a part of libvirt. I use it for
development and testing and also it's the main tool I use to manage VMs
with libvirt.

I know there's a GUI application called virt-manager
(deskutils/virt-manager port), but I didn't try that. I'm not aware of
web UI applications, but I didn't looks specifically.

I'll take a look, thanks for a suggestion.
