Comment on New home server: what hypervisor/OS?
peregus@lemmy.world 9 months agoThat’s something I like, just plain Debian with KVM. How is virt-manager compared to the Proxmox UI? Does it needs to be installed on a separate PC (Windows?)?

No problem running virt-manager on the hypervisor itself. You can also use cockpit-project.org with the cockpit-virtual-machines addon to manage kvm vms from machineip:9090

Cool! I think that I’ll give it a go! Does the cockpit needs to be installed directly on the host OS or…?

Yeah, you need to install cockpit on any linux you wanna manage using it, then you can use the ssh keys to setup so your cockpit session on the hypervisor gives you access to your vms too.
