You won’t be installing GUI! Trust me,  yum install virt-manager xauth – Those are the only packages that will be installed, (plus any required support packages, which are minimal)

 

Then via your SSH session, you get the gui running on *your* local X server – not the remote server. Awesome for remote admin of servers, and also compressed via ssh, and most of my colo servers prioritise ssh traffic, so very good connections, even if your servers are being hammered for traffic. Win win J

You can install virt-manager on the centos box, and then use it via ssh, for example

 

ssh –X user@centoshost.com

 

Then on the command line, run virt-manager, (you may need to install xauth as well, but it works a charm)

 

 



well i am not given permission to install GUI for the centos (dom0)  :(
