I tested this on a Windows 2012 R2 (x64) DataCenter VM, newly built, on oVirt 4.0.5.
It suffers from the same bug that’s been present since at least oVirt 3.6: The Balloon service is setup with the wrong path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\oVirt Guest Tools\drivers\Balloon\w2k12R2\ amd64\blnsvr.exe"
The correct path being:
C:\Program Files (x86)\oVirt Guest Tools\drivers\Balloon\2k12R2\ amd64\blnsvr.exe"
Note the small typo: “w2k12R2” when the actual files are under “2k12R2”. The fix is much the same as before:
sc config BalloonService binpath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\oVirt Guest Tools\drivers\Balloon\2k12R2\amd64\blnsvr.exe" DisplayName= "Balloon Service" start= auto
How is it that this bug persists? Is it being actively tracked? I found reference to someone possibly having “a look” but no follow-up:
looks like it has not been tracked. Daniel, can you please open a bug ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=ovirt-guest-tools ) about this? Didi, let's try to get this fixed in 4.1.1 if not in 4.1.0.

I did note one thing that appears to be fixed: the QEMU agent service is properly setup and runs (it had to be manually started in previous versions.) The oVirt and Spice services start up as expected.
Thanks, Daniel

I guess it should work - briefly tested it on a 4.0 and didn't notice problems. Please file bugs if you find them. Thanks! -- Didi _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
