Hello,
I read the following page :
http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_Guest_Agent_For_Windows
and applied it on a server, and it ran very well.
I obtained the two executables, copied them into "program files"
according to the doc, along with the .ini as stated here :
https://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg18561.html
- the "-install", the start, and the enabling went fine
- rebooting the server runs OK too, and the agent is seen by oVirt
What I don't understand is the following sentence of
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-guest-agent/blob/master/ovirt-guest-agent/...
"Optionally install py2exe if you want to build an executable file which
doesn't require Python installation for running"
As I don't know python at all, I thought this was building some sort of
"self-executable" binary that I could copy-paste into another VM, and do
the same install/enable/run.
And WITHOUT installing any Python environnement.
I'm sorry for such a weak question, but if this is not the case, does
that mean I have to install a Pyhton env on each of my windows VMs?
BTW, I tried to copy-paste the programfiles/guestagent... into another
server, and when running the install, it gives a message
[in french, :( ]
L'application n'a pas pu démarrer car sa configuration côte-à-côte est
incorrecte.
That could be translated by :
The application could not start because its side-by-side (?) config is
incorrect.
PS : Time is not anymore at launching windows_vs_linux war, but I just
installed the guest agent on 17 _linux_ VMs in 3 minutes...
