\&\fBvirt-manager\fR [\s-1OPTIONS\s0]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBvirt-manager\fR 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.
.SH "OPTIONS"
