I'm pleased to announce the latest release of the virt-mem tools,
version 0.2.8.
These are tools for system administrators which let you find things
like kernel messages, process lists and network information of your
guests.
For example:
virt-uname
'uname' command, shows OS version, architecture, etc.
virt-dmesg
'dmesg' command, shows kernel messages
virt-ps
'ps' command, shows process list
Nothing needs to be installed in the guest for this to work, and the
tools are specifically designed to allow easy scripting and
integration with databases and monitoring systems.
Source is available from the web page here:

The latest version (0.2.8) reworks the internals substantially so that
we have direct access to basically any kernel structure, and this will
allow us to quickly add the remaining features that people have asked
for (memory usage information, lists of network interfaces and so on).
As usual, patches, feedback, suggestions etc. are very welcome!
Binaries will be available in Fedora 10 (Rawhide) at some point soon.
Rich.
