Hi, im aware that the answer to this question might be the whole
reason qubes compartmentalizes everything into virtual
machines........or just 'no', but I was wondering is there a way to
give a single qube read-only permission over all qubes on the
computer? so I can run something like htop on a debian machine, see a
process thats bogging down my system, so I can go to that particular
vm and kill the application?
I want to creat a 'Monitor' VM with absolutely no internet capability
using debian (i started learning Linux with Ubuntu, then moved onto
Kali and Arch, now im experimenting with Raspbian, so im much more
familiar with debian than Fedora). I want to have all my supervisory
programs on this VM, but simply peering thru the looking glass as it
were. I found xentop on the qubes terminal helpful, but that only
tells me if a particular qube is peaking CPU or memory usage, not what
process is killing my performance.
Im pretty new to qubes os, so if anyone has some ideas on other cli
utilites on the qubes terminal, or any other suggestions, Id be happy
to entertain them. I recently built this system to be a linux
machine. After using second-hand laptops, computers found in the
trash can, and random computer parts to see just how crappy a system
will run linux lite, i decided to actually build a system from
scratch. I also bought a Pi4 kit, and running everything thru an HDMI
selector into my tv that i use as a monitor. so thanks to anyone who
has an idea!

I have no idea if that is possible. But since you asked for any ideas,
I too sometimes have an app in a VM that is taking all the resources
that I'd like to kill (typically a browser), and I've found it useful to
run a console from dom0 into that VM using virsh. I start a console
into each likely VM that might have an issue.
from dom0:
virsh --quiet -c xen:/// console VM
In the console I login, and run top. I have better success killing a
runaway app this way then with gnome-terminal running in the VM. I move
those consoles to another virtual desktop to keep them out of the way,
but available if needed.
