Hi,
I am new in oVirt and I'd like to get the clarification about the packages
which support the function of Window guest agent from 4.2 release and how
to build it.
Welcome to oVirt community!
The Windows Guest Agent is shipped within the Windows Guest Tools ISO.
The reference documentation page is [1]
https://ovirt.org/documentation/vmm-guide/chap-Installing_Windows_Virtual...
The feature documentation page is [2]
https://ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/integration/windows...
If you have issues while following above [1] please check if [2] solve your
issue and open a ticket on https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-site/issues
reporting any trouble you had following the documentation page.
I looked through the document from ovirt.org, such as
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/internal/guest-agent/guest-agent-for-...
It mentioned:
*With the release of oVirt 3.5 we have introduced the oVirt WGT (Windows
Guest Tools).*
*The oVirt WGT provides an ISO with all the tools and drivers one needs to
install on a Windows VM, with an easy to use installer to install it all in
one step.*
*So manual compilation and installation of oVirt Guest Agent is no longer
necessary.*
*The oVirt WGT ISO is included in **ovirt-guest-tools-iso-3.5-7.noarch.rpm
<http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.5/rpm/fc20/noarch/ovirt-guest-tool...
package.*
Now, ovirt-guest-tools-iso is up to 4.2.4. I found the src rpm from
https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/rpm/el7/SRPMS/ovirt-guest-tools...,
but I could not find ovirt-guest-tools-iso from github, only found
ovirt-wgt.
After clone the ovirt-wgt, I got the SPICE-tools-0.141.iso built.
My question is :
1. Is ovirt-wgt used for Windows guest?
ovirt-wgt is a project for building the oVirt Guest Tools ISO and its
wrapping RPM. It contains VirtIO Windows drivers, SPICE drivers, QEMU Guest
Agent and oVirt Guest Agent.
2. If so, how can I build ovirt-guest-tools-iso package or
ovirt-tools-setup.iso
You don't really need to, but if you want to do that:
$ sudo yum install
https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release42.rpm
$ git clone https://gerrit.ovirt.org/ovirt-wgt
$ cd ovirt-wgt
$ yum install `cat automation/build-artifacts.packages`
$ automation/build-artifacts.sh
should do the build.
Current builds are available:
https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/iso/oVirt-toolsSetup/4.2-4.el7/
https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-guest-tool...
Thanks,
Jingjie
