Release Notes
- Snapshots.
vx snap <vm> [name] [-m note] saves a VM as it is; vx snap ls, vx snap restore and vx snap rm list, go back to and delete them. A running VM's memory is saved too, so going back resumes it exactly where it was. Snapshots are independent save slots: going back to one or deleting one never touches the others.
- Snapshots in the dashboard.
S opens the selected VM's snapshots, ctrl-s saves one right away, and the snapshot the VM came from is highlighted.
- Live details pane. On terminals at least 120 columns wide, the dashboard shows the selected VM's CPU (overall and per core), memory, swap, disk and network from inside the guest, plus its newest snapshots.
i hides or shows it.
- Upgrading on macOS: VMs still running from 0.1.0 need one restart (
vx stop, vx start) before a snapshot can save their memory; until then they get disk-only snapshots.
