# SYNOPSIS

`virt-host-validate` [OPTIONS...] [HV-TYPE]

# DESCRIPTION

This tool validates that the host is configured in a suitable way to run libvirt hypervisor drivers. If invoked without any arguments it will check support for all hypervisor drivers it is aware of. Optionally it can be given a particular hypervisor type (`qemu`, `lxc` or `bhyve`) to restrict the checks to those relevant for that virtualization technology

# OPTIONS

`-v`, `--version`

Display the command version

`-h`, `--help`

Display the command line help

`-q`, `--quiet`

Don't display details of individual checks being performed. Only display output if a check does not pass.

# EXIT STATUS

Upon successful validation, an exit status of 0 will be set. Upon failure a non-zero status will be set.
