<p>Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
|
|
|
|
|
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available

|
|
|
|
|
System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems
|
|
|
|
|
concurently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven
|
|
|
|
|
by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API
