The CLI features an integrated, fully-featured help system to show details about every possible command.
+
A single CLI instance can manage multiple clusters, including a quick detail view, and will default to a "local" connection if an "/etc/pvc/pvc.conf" file is found; sensitive API keys are hidden by default.
+
PVC can show the key details of your cluster at a glance, including health, persistent fault events, and key resources; the CLI can output both in pretty human format and JSON for easier machine parsing in scripts.
+
PVC can show details about the nodes in the cluster, including their live health and resource utilization.
+
PVC can show details about the VMs in the cluster, including their state, resource allocations, current hosting node, and metadata.
+
In addition to the above basic details, PVC can also show extensive information about a running VM's devices and other resource utilization.
+
PVC has two major client network types, and ensures a consistent configuration of client networks across the entire cluster; managed networks can feature DHCP, DNS, firewall, and other functionality including DHCP reservations.
+
PVC provides a convenient abstracted view of the underlying Ceph system and can manage all core aspects of it.
+
PVC can display logs from VM serial consoles (if properly configured) and nodes in-client to facilitate quick troubleshooting.
+
PVC provides full VM lifecycle management, as well as long-running worker-based commands (in this example, clearing a VM's storage locks).
+
PVC features an extensively customizable and configurable VM provisioner system, including EC2-compatible CloudInit support, allowing you to define flexible VM profiles and provision new VMs with a single command.
+
PVC features several monitoring integration examples under "node-daemon/monitoring", including CheckMK, Munin, and, most recently, Prometheus, including an example Grafana dashboard for cluster monitoring and alerting.
