vmstated is a very simple bhyve virtual machine manager for FreeBSD.
vmstated can be installed via regular ports (sysutils/vmstated);
however, the version on Github is usually a bit ahead feature and bug-fixing wise.
To install from Github
git clone https://github.com/christian-moerz/vmstated
cd vmstated/port
make package
pkg install work/pkg/vmstated-0.06.pkg
To install from ports, open a terminal and run
pkg install vmstated
To uninstall vmstated, use the usual pkg command
pkg deinstall vmstated
Please refer to the man pages for vmstated(8) or vmstatedctl(1) for further
details on how to use vmstated.
