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.
