1. A method in a computing system including at least one processor, comprising:
- for each of a plurality of virtual machines, displaying a visual indication of the virtual machine that includes a set of one or more graphical controls configured to manage the virtual machine; and
displaying a set of general graphical controls configured to synchronously manage two or more of the virtual machines of the plurality, such that a single activation of one of the displayed general graphical controls results in a control action being performed with respect to each of the two or more virtual machines of the plurality.

Abstract
A multi-tenant virtual machine infrastructure (MTVMI) allows multiple tenants to independently access and use a plurality of virtual computing resources via the Internet. Within the MTVMI, different tenants may define unique configurations of virtual computing resources and unique rules to govern the use of the virtual computing resources. The MTVMI may be configured to provide valuable services for tenants and users associated with the tenants.
