[ovirt-users] Re: Debian guest Agent

Hi At least in oVirt 4.3 I've made the experience that you still need the ovirt-guest-agent and that qemu-guest-agent alone was not sufficient. Additionally the agent in Debian 9 is to old and does not start on oVirt 4.2 or newer if I remember correctly. I've often taken the newer package from Debian 10 which works, but others have also worked out workarounds. This blog linked below looks ok, to me, at least this author is correct about the device change from /dev/virtio-ports/com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm /dev/virtio-ports/ovirt-guest-agent.0 which the ovirt-guest-agent in Debian 9 and older doesn't recognize out of the box: https://angrysysadmins.tech/index.php/2019/02/bailey/debian-how-to-instal...
