[ovirt-users] Re: ovirt guest agent ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS

What is the best way to install ovirt guest on Ubuntu 16.04.6?

What I did: # apt-get install ovirt-guest-agent I changed value in /etc/ovirt-guest-agent.conf to look like: [virtio] # device = /dev/virtio-ports/com.redhat.rhevm.vdsm device = /dev/virtio-ports/ovirt-guest-agent.0 # systemctl start ovirt-guest-agent Error on the log: OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/dev/virtio-ports/ovirt-guest-agent.0 Than I set the owner and group # chown ovirtagent:ovirtagent /dev/virtio-ports/ovirt-guest-agent.0 Than I was able to start the agent # systemctl status ovirt-guest-agent ● ovirt-guest-agent.service - oVirt Guest Agent Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/ovirt-guest-agent.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Sat 2020-10-31 19:50:03 WET; 9min ago Process: 6531 ExecStartPre=/bin/chown ovirtagent:ovirtagent /run/ovirt-guest-agent.pid (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 6527 ExecStartPre=/bin/touch /run/ovirt-guest-agent.pid (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 6524 ExecStartPre=/sbin/modprobe virtio_console (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 6537 (python) Tasks: 3 Memory: 68.7M CPU: 5.462s CGroup: /system.slice/ovirt-guest-agent.service └─6537 /usr/bin/python /usr/share/ovirt-guest-agent/ovirt-guest-agent.py Oct 31 19:52:05 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [100B blob data] Oct 31 19:54:06 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [90B blob data] Oct 31 19:54:06 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [155B blob data] Oct 31 19:54:06 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [100B blob data] Oct 31 19:56:06 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [90B blob data] Oct 31 19:56:07 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [155B blob data] Oct 31 19:56:07 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [100B blob data] Oct 31 19:58:07 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [90B blob data] Oct 31 19:58:08 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [155B blob data] Oct 31 19:58:08 alfa.acloud.pt python[6537]: [100B blob data] Everytime I restart the VM I need to set the owner and group # chown ovirtagent:ovirtagent /dev/virtio-ports/ovirt-guest-agent.0 -- ------------------------------ Jose Ferradeira http://www.logicworks.pt _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- users(a)ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/GKJLH7EKUPH...
