Phyllome OS Desktop, alpha version, is out!
I have looked into Cockpit. I agree that it is probably the best way forward to manage virtual machines (Kimchi seems nice too).

ZFS fans, rejoice—RAIDz expansion will be a thing very soon
Cockpit or proxmox comes to mind. Quick Google search also came up with Kimchi.

Proxmox VE: Import Wizard for Migrating VMware ESXi VMs
I would love to see a serious comparison (features & performance) between VMWare ESXi, Proxmox VE and let's say a more stock RHEL or Ubuntu. And maybe even include FreeBSD/bhyve.
Because yes, in terms of core functionality it should be in the same ballpark. And in terms of UI, Virtual Machine Manager [0] was not that bad.

Quickemu: Quickly run optimised Windows, macOS and Linux virtual machines
Shout out to https://virt-manager.org/ - works much better for me, supports running qemu on remote systems via ssh. I used to use this all the time for managing bunches of disparate vm hosts and local vms.
-
Oracle data base
If not, I would just run a CentOS Stream 8 virtual machine using either GNOME Boxes or virt-manager, and set up networking and ssh so you can access the database from the host.

Cockpit: Web-based graphical interface for servers
I'd say it is half-baked webmin. You can only use it with NetworkManager, and if you have an even remotely complex network setup for VMs, NetworkManager usually must be turned off, which makes Cockpit practically unusable. virt-manager [1] is way more powerful for those who like managing VMs with GUI.

Security warning: Virt-viewer leaks copy&pasted passwords to inactive instances
Yeah, it's bad, see also. A workarround is to disable clipboard sharing with SPICE_MAX_CLIPBOARD=0 env. var. on the client, or in VM's config with args: -spice disable-copy-paste=on.

Is it possible to run a Windows 11 Virtual Machine on Linux?
I use Virtual Machine Manager which is a front end GUI for QEMU/KVM. I haven't tried Win11, but perhaps you'll have luck with it?

After tens of hours and a numerous amount of coffee, I proudly did it
