[CentOS-virt] Lightweight alternative to virt-manager
Hi all, Anyone knows any lightweight alternative to virt-manager that works with linux, Windows and macos? Searching I have found ovirt only but it is too heavy.

Your best bet is running virt-manager via SSH X11 forwarding. In all my searches I have not met a reasonable replacement for it alas, everything else is either very buggy or bloated or both. (Which is why customers go for Xenserver and Hyperv). Somewhat offtopic, I can also recommend Proxmox if you're not really adamant on staying on CentOS, it's basically Xenserver-like, but on top of Debian/KVM; really nice UI and set of features.

Dear C. L. Martinez, The simplest way for lightweight for you is with VNC from your Win/Mac to the virt host VNC remote desktop or just a SHELL. Its done!
