Cockpit-Machine is an open source virtualization add-on to Cockpit for Linux. RedHat deprecated virt-manager in RHEL 8, however the project is still alive and well according to many Linux sources, however it has not seen any activity since the 4.10 release over a year ago. I moved to virt-manager when I could not get enough performance out of Oracle's Virtualbox. The GUI to virt-manager is a bit dated, and is in sad need of an overall. I decided to check out what Cockpit-Machines had to offer and this video is my first experience playing around with it and using it.

The short answer to the question is, "I do not know" - I never do when first starting to use something, it takes time to get to know the ins and outs of the software, where its strengths are and where it falls down on the job. The lines have blurred between a typical Type 1 or Type 2 hypervisor today, but this one is clearly a type 2., just like virt-manager. Cockpit-Machines like its predecessor uses the same KVM/QEMU core that virt-manager used. Both are a step up from the complex configuration of KVM and QEMU.

One last thing /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf holds the configuration for both vnc and spice, you will see both default to localhost only, but you can change it here and it will allow your VMs to work over the network. One word of caution, if you are wanting to use vnc or spice over an open network (Internet), you will need to setup TLS and X.509 certificates to protect your session and your VMs while accessing them.

You can find out more about setting up TLS and X.509 certs here: https://cockpit-project.org/guide/lat...
