=head1 NAME
-virt-install - provision new virtual machines
+virt-manager - display the virtual machine desktop management tool
=head1 SYNOPSIS
-B<virt-install> [OPTION]...
+B<virt-manager> [OPTIONS]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
-B<virt-install> is a command line tool for creating new KVM, Xen, or Linux
-container guests using the C<libvirt> hypervisor management library.
-See the EXAMPLES section at the end of this document to quickly get started.
-
-B<virt-install> tool supports graphical installations using (for example)
-VNC or SPICE, as well as text mode installs over serial console. The guest
-can be configured to use one or more virtual disks, network interfaces,
-audio devices, physical USB or PCI devices, among others.
-
-The installation media can be held locally or remotely on NFS, HTTP, FTP
-servers. In the latter case C<virt-install> will fetch the minimal files
-necessary to kick off the installation process, allowing the guest
-to fetch the rest of the OS distribution as needed. PXE booting, and importing
-an existing disk image (thus skipping the install phase) are also supported.
-
-Given suitable command line arguments, C<virt-install> is capable of running
-completely unattended, with the guest 'kickstarting' itself too. This allows
-for easy automation of guest installs.
-
-Many arguments have sub options, specified like opt1=foo,opt2=bar, etc. Try
---option=? to see a complete list of sub options associated with that
-argument, example: virt-install --disk=?
+B<virt-manager> is a desktop tool for managing virtual machines. It
+provides the ability to control the lifecycle of existing machines
+(bootup/shutdown,pause/resume,suspend/restore), provision new virtual
+machines and various types of store, manage virtual networks,
+access the graphical console of virtual machines, and view performance
+statistics, all done locally or remotely.
-Most options are not required. Minimum requirements are --name, --memory,
-guest storage (--disk or --filesystem), and an install option.
+=head1 OPTIONS
-
-=head1 CONNECTING TO LIBVIRT
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<--connect> URI
-
-Connect to a non-default hypervisor. If this isn't specified, libvirt
-will try and choose the most suitable default.
-
-Some valid options here are:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item qemu:///system
-
-For creating KVM and QEMU guests to be run by the system libvirtd instance.
-This is the default mode that virt-manager uses, and what most KVM users
-want.
-
-=item qemu:///session
-
-For creating KVM and QEMU guests for libvirtd running as the regular user.
-

-General configuration parameters that apply to all types of guest installs.
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<-n> NAME
-
-=item B<--name> NAME
-
-Name of the new guest virtual machine instance. This must be unique amongst
-all guests known to the hypervisor on the connection, including those not
-currently active. To re-define an existing guest, use the C<virsh(1)> tool
-to shut it down ('virsh shutdown') & delete ('virsh undefine') it prior to
-running C<virt-install>.
-
-=item B<--memory> OPTIONS
-
-Memory to allocate for the guest, in MiB. This deprecates the -r/--ram option.
-Sub options are available, like 'maxmemory', 'hugepages', 'hotplugmemorymax'
-and 'hotplugmemoryslots'. The memory parameter is mapped to <currentMemory> element,
-the 'maxmemory' sub-option is mapped to <memory> element and 'hotplugmemorymax'
-and 'hotplugmemoryslots' are mapped to <maxMemory> element.
-

-
-Use --sysinfo=? to see a list of all available sub options. Complete details at L<http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsSysinfo>
-
-=item B<--qemu-commandline> ARGS
-
-Pass options directly to the qemu emulator. Only works for the libvirt qemu driver. The option can take a string of arguments, for example:
-
- --qemu-commandline="-display gtk,gl=on"
-
-Environment variables are specified with 'env', for example:
-
- --qemu-commandline=env=DISPLAY=:0.1
-
-Complete details about the libvirt feature: L<https://libvirt.org/drvqemu.html#qemucommand>
-
-=item B<--vcpus> OPTIONS
-
-Number of virtual cpus to configure for the guest. If 'maxvcpus' is specified,
-the guest will be able to hotplug up to MAX vcpus while the guest is running,
-but will startup with VCPUS.
-
-CPU topology can additionally be specified with sockets, cores, and threads.
-If values are omitted, the rest will be autofilled preferring sockets over
-cores over threads.
-
-'cpuset' sets which physical cpus the guest can use. C<CPUSET> is a comma separated list of numbers, which can also be specified in ranges or cpus to exclude. Example:
-
- 0,2,3,5 : Use processors 0,2,3 and 5
- 1-5,^3,8 : Use processors 1,2,4,5 and 8
-
-If the value 'auto' is passed, virt-install attempts to automatically determine
-an optimal cpu pinning using NUMA data, if available.

-
-=item B<--cpu> MODEL[,+feature][,-feature][,match=MATCH][,vendor=VENDOR],...
-
-Configure the CPU model and CPU features exposed to the guest. The only
-required value is MODEL, which is a valid CPU model as known to libvirt.
-
-Libvirt's feature policy values force, require, optional, disable, or forbid,
-or with the shorthand '+feature' and '-feature', which equal 'force=feature'
-and 'disable=feature' respectively
-
-Some examples:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<--cpu core2duo,+x2apic,disable=vmx>
-
-Expose the core2duo CPU model, force enable x2apic, but do not expose vmx
-
-=item B<--cpu host>
-
-Expose the host CPUs configuration to the guest. This enables the guest to
-take advantage of many of the host CPUs features (better performance), but
-may cause issues if migrating the guest to a host without an identical CPU.
-
-=item B<--cpu host-model-only>
-
-Expose the nearest host CPU model configuration to the guest.
-It is the best CPU which can be used for a guest on any of the hosts.
-
-=item B<--cpu cell0.memory=1234,cell0.cpus=0-3,cell1.memory=5678,cell1.cpus=4-7>
-
-Example of specifying two NUMA cells. This will generate XML like:
-
- <cpu>
- <numa>
- <cell cpus="0-3" memory="1234"/>

-
-=item B<--security> type=TYPE[,label=LABEL][,relabel=yes|no]
-
-Configure domain security driver settings. Type can be either 'static' or
-'dynamic'. 'static' configuration requires a security LABEL. Specifying
-LABEL without TYPE implies static configuration.
-
-To have libvirt automatically apply your static label, you must specify
-relabel=yes. Otherwise disk images must be manually labeled by the admin,
-including images that virt-install is asked to create.
-
-Use --security=? to see a list of all available sub options. Complete details at L<http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#seclabel>
-
-=item B<--features> FEAT=on|off,...
-
-Set elements in the guests <features> XML on or off. Examples include acpi,
-apic, eoi, privnet, and hyperv features. Some examples:
-

-
-=item B<--features eoi=on>
-
-Enable APIC PV EOI
-
-=item B<--features hyperv_vapic=on,hyperv_spinlocks=off>
-
-Enable hypver VAPIC, but disable spinlocks
-
-=item B<--features kvm_hidden=on>
-
-Allow the KVM hypervisor signature to be hidden from the guest
-
-=item B<--features pvspinlock=on>
-

-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<-c> OPTIONS
-
-=item B<--cdrom> OPTIONS
-
-File or device used as a virtual CD-ROM device.
-It can be path to an ISO image, or to a CDROM device. It can also be a URL
-from which to fetch/access a minimal boot ISO image. The URLs take the same
-format as described for the C<--location> argument. If a cdrom has been
-specified via the C<--disk> option, and neither C<--cdrom> nor any other
-install option is specified, the C<--disk> cdrom is used as the install media.
-
-=item B<-l> LOCATION
-
-=item B<--location> OPTIONS
-
-Distribution tree installation source. virt-install can recognize
-certain distribution trees and fetches a bootable kernel/initrd pair to
-launch the install.
-
-With libvirt 0.9.4 or later, network URL installs work for remote connections.
-virt-install will download kernel/initrd to the local machine, and then
-upload the media to the remote host. This option requires the URL to
-be accessible by both the local and remote host.
-
---location allows things like --extra-args for kernel arguments, and using --initrd-inject. If you want to use those options with CDROM media, you have a few options:
-
-* Run virt-install as root and do --location ISO
-
-* Mount the ISO at a local directory, and do --location DIRECTORY
-
-* Mount the ISO at a local directory, export that directory over local http, and do --location http://localhost/DIRECTORY
-
-The C<LOCATION> can take one of the following forms:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item http://host/path
-
-An HTTP server location containing an installable distribution image.
-
-=item ftp://host/path
-
-An FTP server location containing an installable distribution image.
-
-=item nfs:host:/path or nfs://host/path
-
-An NFS server location containing an installable distribution image. This requires running virt-install as root.
-
-=item DIRECTORY
-
-Path to a local directory containing an installable distribution image. Note that the directory will not be accessible by the guest after initial boot, so the OS installer will need another way to access the rest of the install media.
-
-=item ISO
-
-Mount the ISO and probe the directory. This requires running virt-install as root, and has the same VM access caveat as DIRECTORY.

-=item B<--pxe>
-
-Use the PXE boot protocol to load the initial ramdisk and kernel for starting
-the guest installation process.
-
-=item B<--import>
-
-Skip the OS installation process, and build a guest around an existing
-disk image. The device used for booting is the first device specified via
-C<--disk> or C<--filesystem>.
-
-=item B<--livecd>
-
-Specify that the installation media is a live CD and thus the guest
-needs to be configured to boot off the CDROM device permanently. It
-may be desirable to also use the C<--disk none> flag in combination.
-
-=item B<-x> EXTRA
-
-=item B<--extra-args> OPTIONS
-
-Additional kernel command line arguments to pass to the installer when
-performing a guest install from C<--location>. One common usage is specifying
-an anaconda kickstart file for automated installs, such as
---extra-args "ks=http://myserver/my.ks"
-
-=item B<--initrd-inject> PATH
-
-Add PATH to the root of the initrd fetched with C<--location>. This can be
-used to run an automated install without requiring a network hosted kickstart
-file:
-
---initrd-inject=/path/to/my.ks --extra-args "ks=file:/my.ks"
-
-=item B<--os-variant> OS_VARIANT
-
-Optimize the guest configuration for a specific operating system (ex.
-'fedora18', 'rhel7', 'winxp'). While not required, specifying this
-options is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, as it can greatly increase performance
-by specifying virtio among other guest tweaks.
-
-By default, virt-install will attempt to auto detect this value from
-the install media (currently only supported for URL installs). Autodetection
-can be disabled with the special value 'none'. Autodetection can be
-forced with the special value 'auto'.
-
-Use the command "osinfo-query os" to get the list of the accepted OS
-variants.
-
-=item B<--boot> BOOTOPTS
-
-Optionally specify the post-install VM boot configuration. This option allows
-specifying a boot device order, permanently booting off kernel/initrd with
-option kernel arguments, and enabling a BIOS boot menu (requires libvirt
-0.8.3 or later)
-
---boot can be specified in addition to other install options
-(such as --location, --cdrom, etc.) or can be specified on its own. In
-the latter case, behavior is similar to the --import install option: there
-is no 'install' phase, the guest is just created and launched as specified.
-
-Some examples:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<--boot cdrom,fd,hd,network,menu=on>
-
-Set the boot device priority as first cdrom, first floppy, first harddisk,
-network PXE boot. Additionally enable BIOS boot menu prompt.
-
-=item B<--boot kernel=KERNEL,initrd=INITRD,kernel_args="console=/dev/ttyS0">
-
-Have guest permanently boot off a local kernel/initrd pair, with the
-specified kernel options.
-
-=item B<--boot kernel=KERNEL,initrd=INITRD,dtb=DTB>
-
-Have guest permanently boot off a local kernel/initrd pair with an
-external device tree binary. DTB can be required for some non-x86
-configurations like ARM or PPC
-
-=item B<--boot loader=BIOSPATH>
-
-Use BIOSPATH as the virtual machine BIOS.
-
-=item B<--boot menu=on,useserial=on>
-
-Enable the bios boot menu, and enable sending bios text output over
-serial console.
-
-=item B<--boot init=INITPATH>
-
-Path to a binary that the container guest will init. If a root C<--filesystem>
-has been specified, virt-install will default to /sbin/init, otherwise
-will default to /bin/sh.
-
-=item B<--boot uefi>
-
-Configure the VM to boot from UEFI. In order for virt-install to know the
-correct UEFI parameters, libvirt needs to be advertising known UEFI binaries
-via domcapabilities XML, so this will likely only work if using properly
-configured distro packages.
-
-=item B<--boot loader=/.../OVMF_CODE.fd,loader_ro=yes,loader_type=pflash,nvram_template=/.../OVMF_VARS.fd,loader_secure=no>
-
-Specify that the virtual machine use the custom OVMF binary as boot firmware,
-mapped as a virtual flash chip. In addition, request that libvirt instantiate
-the VM-specific UEFI varstore from the custom "/.../OVMF_VARS.fd" varstore
-template. This is the recommended UEFI setup, and should be used if
---boot uefi doesn't know about your UEFI binaries. If your UEFI firmware
-supports Secure boot feature you can enable it via loader_secure.

-=head1 STORAGE OPTIONS
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<--disk> OPTIONS
-
-Specifies media to use as storage for the guest, with various options. The
-general format of a disk string is
-
- --disk opt1=val1,opt2=val2,...
-
-The simplest invocation to create a new 10G disk image and associated disk device:
-
- --disk size=10
-
-virt-install will generate a path name, and place it in the default image location for the hypervisor. To specify media, the command can either be:
-
- --disk /some/storage/path[,opt1=val1]...
-
-or explicitly specify one of the following arguments:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<path>
-
-A path to some storage media to use, existing or not. Existing media can be
-a file or block device.
-
-Specifying a non-existent path implies attempting to create the new storage,
-and will require specifying a 'size' value. Even for remote hosts, virt-install
-will try to use libvirt storage APIs to automatically create the given path.
-
-If the hypervisor supports it, B<path> can also be a network URL, like
-http://example.com/some-disk.img . For network paths, they hypervisor will
-directly access the storage, nothing is downloaded locally.
-
-=item B<pool>
-
-An existing libvirt storage pool name to create new storage on. Requires
-specifying a 'size' value.
-
-=item B<vol>
-
-An existing libvirt storage volume to use. This is specified as
-'poolname/volname'.
-
-=back
-
-Other available options:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<device>
-
-Disk device type. Value can be 'cdrom', 'disk', 'lun' or 'floppy'. Default is
-'disk'. If a 'cdrom' is specified, and no install method is chosen, the
-cdrom is used as the install media.
-
-=item B<boot_order>
-
-Guest installation with multiple disks will need this parameter to boot correctly after being installed. A boot_order parameter will take values 1,2,3,... Devices with lower value has higher priority.
-
-=item B<bus>
-
-Disk bus type. Value can be 'ide', 'sata', 'scsi', 'usb', 'virtio' or 'xen'.
-The default is hypervisor dependent since not all hypervisors support all
-bus types.
-
-=item B<removable>
-
-Sets the removable flag (/sys/block/$dev/removable on Linux). Only
-used with QEMU and bus=usb. Value can be 'on' or 'off'.
-
-=item B<readonly>
-
-Set drive as readonly (takes 'on' or 'off')
-
-=item B<shareable>
-
-Set drive as shareable (takes 'on' or 'off')
-
-=item B<size>
-
-size (in GiB) to use if creating new storage
-
-=item B<sparse>
-
-whether to skip fully allocating newly created storage. Value is 'yes' or
-'no'. Default is 'yes' (do not fully allocate) unless it isn't
-supported by the underlying storage type.
-
-The initial time taken to fully-allocate the guest virtual disk (sparse=no)
-will be usually balanced by faster install times inside the guest. Thus
-use of this option is recommended to ensure consistently high performance
-and to avoid I/O errors in the guest should the host filesystem fill up.
-
-=item B<backing_store>
-
-Path to a disk to use as the backing store for the newly created image.
-
-=item B<backing_format>
-
-Disk image format of B<backing_store>
-
-=item B<cache>
-
-The cache mode to be used. The host pagecache provides cache memory.
-The cache value can be 'none', 'writethrough', 'directsync', 'unsafe'
-or 'writeback'.
-'writethrough' provides read caching. 'writeback' provides
-read and write caching. 'directsync' bypasses the host page
-cache. 'unsafe' may cache all content and ignore flush requests from
-the guest.
-
-=item B<discard>
-
-Whether discard (also known as "trim" or "unmap") requests are ignored
-or passed to the filesystem. The value can be either "unmap" (allow
-the discard request to be passed) or "ignore" (ignore the discard
-request). Since 1.0.6 (QEMU and KVM only)
-
-=item B<format>
-
-Disk image format. For file volumes, this can be 'raw', 'qcow2', 'vmdk', etc. See format types in L<http://libvirt.org/storage.html> for possible values. This is often mapped to the B<driver_type> value as well.
-
-If not specified when creating file images, this will default to 'qcow2'.
-
-If creating storage, this will be the format of the new image. If using an existing image, this overrides libvirt's format auto-detection.
-
-=item B<driver_name>
-
-Driver name the hypervisor should use when accessing the specified
-storage. Typically does not need to be set by the user.
-
-=item B<driver_type>
-
-Driver format/type the hypervisor should use when accessing the specified
-storage. Typically does not need to be set by the user.
-
-=item B<io>
-
-Disk IO backend. Can be either "threads" or "native".
-
-=item B<error_policy>
-
-How guest should react if a write error is encountered. Can be one of
-"stop", "ignore", or "enospace"
-
-=item B<serial>
-
-Serial number of the emulated disk device. This is used in linux guests
-to set /dev/disk/by-id symlinks. An example serial number might be:
-WD-WMAP9A966149
-
-=item B<startup_policy>

-=item B<--filesystem>
-
-Specifies a directory on the host to export to the guest. The most simple
-invocation is:
-
- --filesystem /source/on/host,/target/point/in/guest
-
-Which will work for recent QEMU and linux guest OS or LXC containers. For
-QEMU, the target point is just a mounting hint in sysfs, so will not be
-automatically mounted.
-
-The following explicit options can be specified:
-

-Connect the guest to the host network. The value for C<NETWORK> can take
-one of 4 formats:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item bridge=BRIDGE
-
-Connect to a bridge device in the host called C<BRIDGE>. Use this option if
-the host has static networking config & the guest requires full outbound
-and inbound connectivity to/from the LAN. Also use this if live migration
-will be used with this guest.
-
-=item network=NAME
-
-Connect to a virtual network in the host called C<NAME>. Virtual networks
-can be listed, created, deleted using the C<virsh> command line tool. In
-an unmodified install of C<libvirt> there is usually a virtual network
-with a name of C<default>. Use a virtual network if the host has dynamic
-networking (eg NetworkManager), or using wireless. The guest will be
-NATed to the LAN by whichever connection is active.
-
-=item type=direct,source=IFACE[,source_mode=MODE]
-
-Direct connect to host interface IFACE using macvtap.
-
-=item user
-
-Connect to the LAN using SLIRP. Only use this if running a QEMU guest as
-an unprivileged user. This provides a very limited form of NAT.
-
-=item none
-
-Tell virt-install not to add any default network interface.
-
-=back
-
-If this option is omitted a single NIC will be created in the guest. If
-there is a bridge device in the host with a physical interface enslaved,
-that will be used for connectivity. Failing that, the virtual network
-called C<default> will be used. This option can be specified multiple
-times to setup more than one NIC.
-
-Other available options are:

-
-=item B<mac>
-
-Fixed MAC address for the guest; If this parameter is omitted, or the value
-C<RANDOM> is specified a suitable address will be randomly generated. For
-Xen virtual machines it is required that the first 3 pairs in the MAC address
-be the sequence '00:16:3e', while for QEMU or KVM virtual machines it must
-be '52:54:00'.
-
-=item B<filterref>
-
-Controlling firewall and network filtering in libvirt. Value can be any nwfilter
-defined by the C<virsh> 'nwfilter' subcommands. Available filters can be listed

-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<--graphics> TYPE,opt1=arg1,opt2=arg2,...
-
-Specifies the graphical display configuration. This does not configure any

-Typically the user does not need to specify this option, virt-install will
-try and choose a useful default, and launch a suitable connection.
-
-General format of a graphical string is
-

-
-For example:
-
- --graphics vnc,password=foobar
-
-The supported options are:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<type>
-
-The display type. This is one of:
-
-vnc
-
-Setup a virtual console in the guest and export it as a VNC server in
-the host. Unless the C<port> parameter is also provided, the VNC
-server will run on the first free port number at 5900 or above. The
-actual VNC display allocated can be obtained using the C<vncdisplay>
-command to C<virsh> (or L<virt-viewer(1)> can be used which handles this
-detail for the use).
-
-spice
-
-Export the guest's console using the Spice protocol. Spice allows advanced
-features like audio and USB device streaming, as well as improved graphical
-performance.
-
-Using spice graphic type will work as if those arguments were given:
-
- --video qxl --channel spicevmc
-
-none
-
-No graphical console will be allocated for the guest. Guests will likely
-need to have a text console configured on the first
-serial port in the guest (this can be done via the --extra-args option). The
-command 'virsh console NAME' can be used to connect to the serial device.
-
-=item B<port>
-
-Request a permanent, statically assigned port number for the guest
-console. This is used by 'vnc' and 'spice'
-
-=item B<tlsport>
-
-Specify the spice tlsport.
-
-=item B<listen>
-
-Address to listen on for VNC/Spice connections. Default is typically 127.0.0.1
-(localhost only), but some hypervisors allow changing this globally (for
-example, the qemu driver default can be changed in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf).
-Use 0.0.0.0 to allow access from other machines.
-
-Use 'none' to specify that the display server should not listen on any
-port. The display server can be accessed only locally through
-libvirt unix socket (virt-viewer with --attach for instance).
-
-Use 'socket' to have the VM listen on a libvirt generated unix socket
-path on the host filesystem.
-
-This is used by 'vnc' and 'spice'
-
-=item B<keymap>
-
-Request that the virtual console be configured to run with a specific
-keyboard layout. If the special value 'local' is specified, virt-install
-will attempt to configure to use the same keymap as the local system. A value
-of 'none' specifically defers to the hypervisor. Default behavior is
-hypervisor specific, but typically is the same as 'local'. This is used
-by 'vnc' and 'spice'.
-
-=item B<password>
-
-Request a console password, required at connection time. Beware, this info may
-end up in virt-install log files, so don't use an important password. This
-is used by 'vnc' and 'spice'
-
-=item B<gl>
-
-Whether to use OpenGl accelerated rendering. Value is 'yes' or 'no'. This is
-used by 'spice'.

-=head1 MISCELLANEOUS OPTIONS
-
-=over 4
-
-=item B<-h>

-=item B<--help>
-
-Show the help message and exit
-
-=item B<--version>
-
-Show program's version number and exit
+=item B<--spice-disable-auto-usbredir>
-=item B<--autostart>
-
-Set the autostart flag for a domain. This causes the domain to be started
-on host boot up.
-
-=item B<--transient>
-
-Use --import or --boot and --transient if you want a transient libvirt
-VM. These VMs exist only until the domain is shut down or the host
-server is restarted. Libvirt forgets the XML configuration of the VM
-after either of these events. Note that the VM's disks will not be
-deleted. See:
-L<http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/VM_lifecycle#Transient_guest_domains_vs_Persistent_guest_domains>
-
-=item B<--print-xml> [STEP]
-
-Print the generated XML of the guest, instead of defining it. By default this WILL do storage creation (can be disabled with --dry-run). This option implies --quiet.
-
-If the VM install has multiple phases, by default this will print all generated XML. If you want to print a particular step, use --print-xml 2 (for the second phase XML).
-
-=item B<--noreboot>
-
-Prevent the domain from automatically rebooting after the install has
-completed.
-
-=item B<--wait> WAIT
-
-Amount of time to wait (in minutes) for a VM to complete its install.
-Without this option, virt-install will wait for the console to close (not
-necessarily indicating the guest has shutdown), or in the case of
---noautoconsole, simply kick off the install and exit. Any negative
-value will make virt-install wait indefinitely, a value of 0 triggers the
-same results as noautoconsole. If the time limit is exceeded, virt-install
-simply exits, leaving the virtual machine in its current state.
-
-=item B<--dry-run>
-
-Proceed through the guest creation process, but do NOT create storage devices,
-change host device configuration, or actually teach libvirt about the guest.
-virt-install may still fetch install media, since this is required to
-properly detect the OS to install.
-
-=item B<--check>
-
-Enable or disable some validation checks. Some examples are warning about using a disk that's already assigned to another VM (--check path_in_use=on|off), or warning about potentially running out of space during disk allocation (--check disk_size=on|off). Most checks are performed by default.
-
-=item B<-q>
-
-=item B<--quiet>
-
-Only print fatal error messages.
-
-=item B<-d>
-
-=item B<--debug>
-
-Print debugging information to the terminal when running the install process.
-The debugging information is also stored in
-C<~/.cache/virt-manager/virt-install.log> even if this parameter is omitted.
+Auto USB redirection is supported by default. This option switches off it.
