Libguestfs is a library for accessing and modifying guest disk images.
Amongst the things this is good for: making batch configuration
changes to guests, getting disk used/free statistics (see also:
virt-df), migrating between virtualization systems (see also:
virt-p2v), performing partial backups, performing partial guest
clones, cloning guests and changing registry/UUID/hostname info, and
much else besides.
Libguestfs is a library for accessing and modifying virtual machine
disk images. http://libguestfs.org
It can be used to make batch configuration changes to guests, get
disk used/free statistics (virt-df), migrate between hypervisors
(virt-p2v, virt-v2v), perform backups and guest clones, change
registry/UUID/hostname info, build guests from scratch (virt-builder)
and much more.
Libguestfs uses Linux kernel and qemu code, and can access any type of
guest filesystem that Linux and qemu can, including but not limited
to: ext2/3/4, btrfs, FAT and NTFS, LVM, many different disk partition
schemes, qcow, qcow2, vmdk.
Libguestfs provides ways to enumerate guest storage (eg. partitions,
LVs, what filesystem is in each LV, etc.). It can also run commands
in the context of the guest.
Libguestfs for Fedora is split into several subpackages. The basic
subpackages are:
Libguestfs is a library that can be linked with C and C++ management
programs.
libguestfs C library
libguestfs-tools virt-* tools, guestfish and guestmount (FUSE)
libguestfs-tools-c only the subset of virt tools written in C
(for reduced dependencies)
For high level virt tools, guestfish (shell scripting and command line
access), and guestmount (mount guest filesystems using FUSE), install
'%{name}-tools'.
For enhanced features, install:
For shell scripting and command line access, install 'guestfish'.
libguestfs-gfs2 adds Global Filesystem (GFS2) support
libguestfs-hfsplus adds HFS+ (Mac filesystem) support
libguestfs-jfs adds JFS support
libguestfs-nilfs adds NILFS v2 support
libguestfs-reiserfs adds ReiserFS support
libguestfs-rescue enhances virt-rescue shell with more tools
libguestfs-rsync rsync to/from guest filesystems
libguestfs-xfs adds XFS support
libguestfs-zfs adds ZFS support
To mount guest filesystems on the host using FUSE, install
'%{name}-mount'.
Language bindings:
For extra features, install 'libguestfs-gfs2', 'libguestfs-hfsplus',
'libguestfs-jfs', 'libguestfs-nilfs', 'libguestfs-reiserfs',
'libguestfs-rescue', 'libguestfs-rsync', 'libguestfs-xfs',
'libguestfs-zfs'.
For Erlang bindings, install 'erlang-libguestfs'.
For GObject bindings and GObject Introspection, install
'libguestfs-gobject-devel'.
For Golang bindings, install 'golang-guestfs'.
For Java bindings, install 'libguestfs-java-devel'.
For Lua bindings, install 'lua-guestfs'
For OCaml bindings, install 'ocaml-libguestfs-devel'.
For Perl bindings, install 'perl-Sys-Guestfs'.
For PHP bindings, install 'php-libguestfs'.
For Python bindings, install 'python-libguestfs'.
For Ruby bindings, install 'ruby-libguestfs'.
