VMmanager KVM is a virtualization management software, which presents a perfect tool for creating virtual machines, providing VPS hosting services and building cloud infrastructure.
VMmanager can work with one or multiple physical servers to create virtual machines making it possible to manage a cluster with unlimited number of machines.
The Libvirt library is used for managing the virtualization system. If you encounter problems and cannot find possible causes in VMmanager KVM logs, try locating them in the libvirt logs (/var/log/libvirt) and the system log.
