The VM Watcher package provides two monitoring functions that report a VM’s running state and its hardware resource allocation. Both functions are accessible from the main CLI menu. In the current release, the values displayed are hardcoded placeholders — live hypervisor integration is planned for a future version.

​
CLI options

OptionAction
5View VM resource allocation
6View VM running status
7View both resource allocation and status

​
VMResourceAllocation (option 5)

This function prints the RAM and CPU core allocation for the VM. Current output: 
Watching VM resource allocation - RAM allocated: 4 GB, CPU cores allocated: 2
The values are set as package-level variables in vmwatcher.go:
  • RAM: 4 GB
  • CPU cores: 2

​
VMRunningStatus (option 6)

This function prints whether the VM is currently running. Current output: 
Vm running? Status: false
The running state is hardcoded to false.

​
Option 7 — view both

Selecting option 7 calls both VMResourceAllocation and VMRunningStatus in sequence, displaying both outputs together.
All values shown by the VM Watcher are currently hardcoded. The watcher does not read from a running hypervisor or inspect any live VM state. Future versions will accept a VM ID and query real system metrics.

​
Source code

package vmwatcher

import "fmt"

var ramAlloc int = 4
var cpuCoresAlloc int = 2

func VMRunningStatus() {
    var vmRunning bool = false
    fmt.Printf("Vm running? Status: %v", vmRunning)
}

func VMResourceAllocation() {
    fmt.Printf("Watching VM resource allocation - RAM allocated: %v GB, CPU cores allocated: %v", ramAlloc, cpuCoresAlloc)
}
When hypervisor support is added, VMResourceAllocation and VMRunningStatus will accept a VM identifier so you can monitor individual machines rather than a single global state.
