is there any documentation o oVirt guest agent commands? To be more precise: i need to pass commands to oVirt guest agent from hypervisor. Reading info works fine: socat /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channel/target/domain-20- win7_32bit/com.redhat.serial.0 - {"applications": ["Python 2.7.12rc1", "SPICE Guest Tools", "Total Commander (Remove or Repair)", "Python 2.7 pywin32-216", "Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.1", "Git version 2.9.0", "WinRAR 5.40 beta 2 (32- bit)", "Notepad++"], "__name__": "applications"} {"__name__": "host-name", "name": "WIN7_32BIT"} {"__name__": "os-version", "version": "Win 7"} I'm unable to find how to send command (lets say "shutdown") to agent?. echo "shutdown" | socat /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channel/target/domain-20- win7_32bit/com.redhat.kvm-vdi.0 - Does not seem to work Thank you for your help.
