| ==== New Tools ====
| |
| Utilities in the new <code>[http://et.redhat.com/~rjones/virt-mem/ virt-mem]</code> package provide access to process tables, interface information, dmesg, and uname of a guest from the host system.

| === Remote Installation of Virtual Machines ===
| |
| '''Detailed Description'''
| |
| Fully support remote guest creation in virt-install and virt-manager. This entails allowing a way to specify existing managed storage on the remote connection, or provisioning new storage on an existing pool at install time. Install methods are either PXE or a managed cdrom.
| |
| | |
| Ideally coupled with this will be better remote connection support: use libvirt's avahi advertising to search for potential remote connections when adding a connection in virt-manager.
| |
| | |
| '''Benefit to Fedora'''
| |
| Remote VM installation isn't for everyone but it's pretty compelling for folks managing more than one physical machine for virtualization. A central box can be used to do all provisioning, where previously an admin would have to interact directly with the host. This will also encourage interested users to manage their storage and installation media using libvirt's storage capabilities, whose benefits are outlined at the VirtStorage feature page.
