Summary

Libguestfs is a library for accessing and modifying virtual machine

disk images. https://libguestfs.org/

It can be used to make batch configuration changes to guests, get disk

used/free statistics (virt-df), 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 is split into several subpackages. The basic subpackages are:

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)

virt-dib safe and secure diskimage-builder replacement

For enhanced features, install:

libguestfs-forensics adds filesystem forensics support

libguestfs-gfs2 adds Global Filesystem (GFS2) support

libguestfs-hfsplus adds HFS+ (Mac filesystem) support

libguestfs-inspect-icons adds support for inspecting guest icons

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
