# What is Kimchi? | ||
|
||
Kimchi is an HTML5 based management tool for KVM. It is designed to make it as | ||
easy as possible to get started with KVM and create your first guest. | ||
|
||
Kimchi runs as a [Wok](https://github.com/kimchi-project/wok/wiki) plugin. | ||
|
||
Kimchi manages KVM guests through libvirt. The management interface is accessed | ||
over the web using a browser that supports HTML5. | ||
|
||

|
||
## Usage | ||
|
||
Connect your browser to https://localhost:8001. You should see a screen like: | ||
|
||
![Wok Login Screen](/docs/wok-login.png) | ||
|
||
By default, wok uses PAM to authenticate users so you can log in with the same username | ||
and password that you would use to log in to the machine itself. Once logged in | ||
you will see a screen like: | ||
|
||
![Kimchi Guest View](/docs/kimchi-guests.png) | ||
|
||
This shows you the list of running guests including a live screenshot of | ||
the guest session. You can use the action buttons to shutdown the guests | ||
or connect to the display in a new window. | ||
|
||
To create a new guest, click on the "+" button in the upper right corner. | ||
In Kimchi, all guest creation is done through templates. | ||
|
||
You can view or modify templates by clicking on the Templates link in the | ||
top navigation bar. | ||
|
||
The template screen looks like: | ||
|
||
![Kimchi Template View](/docs/kimchi-templates.png) | ||
|
||
From this view, you can change the parameters of a template or create a | ||
new template using the "+" button in the upper right corner. | ||
|
||
To create a template, you need an ISO or image file on your host or use a remote one. | ||
If you are willing to use your own ISO, please copy it to out of box storage | ||
pool (default path is: /var/lib/kimchi/isos). | ||
|
||
## Troubleshooting | ||
|
||
#### Server access | ||
Please, check [Wok configuration](https://github.com/kimchi-project/wok/#troubleshooting) | ||
if you are getting problems to access Wok server. | ||
|
||
#### NFS storage pool | ||
Please, check the NFS export path permission is configured like below: | ||
|
||
1. Export path need to be squashed as kvm gid and libvirt uid: | ||
/my_export_path *(all_squash,anongid=<kvm-gid>, anonuid=<libvirt-uid>,rw,sync) | ||
|
||
So that root user can create volume with right user/group. | ||
|
||
2. Set libvirt user and kvm group for export path, in order to make sure all | ||
mapped user can get into the mount point. | ||
