Hi,

is there a way to find out the name and/or IP of the host system a KVM vm is running on ? I've no idea how to search for this question on the net ...

TIA

Hi,
from the VM-side it's not easy (AFAIK). You can use "qm list" on the host to see which VMs are running. From the VM you can perhaps "ask" the hosts for the mac-adress with something like "brctl showmacs vmbr0"?
